Java JRE 64-bit download for Windows?

I'm working on a web site project with a Java component and am currently testing for cross-browser compatibility. Most is fine but the Java part won't load on 64-bit browsers. Looks like I need a 64-bit JRE to test. Where does one download the (off-line) 64-bit Java runtime installer for Windows?

The official download page is here: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Unless I'm blind, nothing 64-bit there for Windows except a link to notes. Said notes are here: http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_win64bit.xml#Java%20for%2064-bit

Particularly relevant excerpt:

"Users should download 64-bit Java software, if they are running 64-bit IE. For downloading 64-bit Java click 64-bit manual download"

The only off-line installer, as far as I can tell, has only installed the 32-bit runtime. Then we're back at square one! Am I missing something or going nuts?

Where can I find a 64 bit JRE?

All of the 64-bit programs are installed in the Program Files directory, easily accessible using Windows Explorer. Look for the Java directory within Program Files and you will find all of the 64-bit Java packages that are installed located there.

How do I download JRE in Java?

You can download the JRE free of charge from Oracle. Go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html . Under Java Platform, Standard Edition, select either the current release, or click Previous Releases to install an earlier supported version. You can use either the JDK or JRE.

Might this be the download you are looking for?

  1. Go to the Java SE Downloads Page.
  2. Scroll down a tad look for the main table with the header of "Java Platform, Standard Edition"
  3. Click the JRE Download Button (JRE is the runtime component. JDK is the developer's kit).
  4. Select the appropriate download (all platforms and 32/64 bit downloads are listed)
