I am pointing to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_111\bin
(I also tried pointing to \jre1.8.0_111 (one up from \bin) as your post alludes to - but it doesn't work either and OO says "The folder you selected does not contain a JRE... Pls select a different folder"

Many as far back as 2013.

Addendum:
Win 7 64bit, AOO v 3.4.1 alongside LO v4&5 AOO 4.1.3 and several portable versions
ALL utilising one installation of Java v1.8.0.111 (32bit) - Never had any problems. :bravo:

Do we have an issue number for this? Does it affect all installations of AOO 4.1.3 on x86? I'm afraid, I still do not understand this Windows specific problem. When it came up in the past, I assumed that it was a problem with an outdated msvcr compared to a new JRE. This is the first time I read that AOO installs a 64-bit version instead of 32-bit.
