On a Windows installation, the Java JRE is located in the directories by default:

  • 2003.06.x, 7.0.x, and 7.1.x: /opt/rational/common/java/jre/bin

To determine the locally assigned Java version, open a command prompt, and navigate to the Java JRE directory. Type the command: java -version and press the ENTER key.
