[Solved] OpenOffice Help with JRE

[cpat]

I needed some help on Calc, clicked on Help:Open Office Help which brought up the Help window. Not finding what I wanted I clicked 'FInd' tab, put in a search term and clicked Find. A message popped up saying that OO requires a jre to do this task. So I downloaded JRE for windows 64 bit, installed it and restarted OO calc. When I repeated the find procedure I received the same message as before.

So my questions are:
Does OO require JRE 32 bit?
Where does Windows 10 load JRE?

Thanks

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Indeed, AOO needs the 32bit version of JRE.
Google should find you some links like: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/ ... 33155.html
You've to take the x86 version.
