What happened to Java JRE?

In Windows and macOS, installing the JDK in previous releases optionally installed a JRE. In JDK 11, this is no longer an option. In this release, the JRE or Server JRE is no longer offered. Only the JDK is offered.

Why is JRE not available?

Your JAVA_HOME and or JRE_HOME variables are probably pointing to a wrong installation. Update those environmental variables and you should be good. This is not a version problem, but a problem with where it is installed. You need to do more than install the JDE or JDK.

Is JRE preinstalled?

Neither the JDK nor the JRE come preinstalled. However, the first time you need a JRE, Mac OS X will offer to download and install it for you (via the Software Update mechanism).

Where can I download Java Runtime Environment?

Under Java Platform, Standard Edition, select either the current release, or click Previous Releases to install an earlier supported version.
