If you have the VB6 setup files on your hard drive, it’s possible to edit the settings file for the installer and tell it not to ask for Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java.
#Install vm for windows 10 upgrade install#
Tell VB6 setup Not To Install Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java
#Install vm for windows 10 upgrade update#
It now doesn’t prompt you to update Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java. Copying to the Desktop first will avoid any access denied error when trying to copy the file directly from 7-Zip.Īfter copying msjava.dll to either the System32 or SysWOW64 folder, you can launch the Visual Basic 6 setup.exe file to start the installation. Look for msjava.dll in the list, drag it onto the Desktop and then copy it to SysWOW64 or System32. In 7-Zip, double click on javabase.cab which will open it. Go to the IE4 folder located on the install CD, right click on MSJAVX86.exe, go to 7-Zip and select “ Open archive“. You can extract it if you have an archiver such as 7-Zip installed on your system.
If it doesn’t exist, you have a 32-bit system and should copy the file to the C:\Windows\System32 folder instead.ī) Alternatively, the same DLL file is also present on the installation disc. If you’re unsure about the architecture of your Windows operating system, simply try to copy msjava.dll to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder. Placing the file into the right folder will let the VB6 install continue.Ī) For the quickest and easiest way of doing this, you can download the msjava.dll file from the link below and copy it to the required directory. The VB6 installer checks if the file msjava.dll exists in the SysWOW64 folder for 64-bit systems or System32 for 32-bit systems. Trick VB6 setup into thinking Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java is Installed There are two ways in which you can do this which we’ll list below, you only need to use one of them. Then you can reach the next phase of the installation. The solution is to bypass the VB6 setup by either tricking it into thinking Microsoft Java is already installed or by telling it not to install Java in the first place.
The problem is, the VB6 setup does not allow you to continue with the installation if you untick the “Update Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java” checkbox as it grays out the Next button. A computer should always maintain the latest version of Java and it’s pointless having the discontinued Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java on the computer just to install Visual Basic 6.
