Installing the Java Runtime Environment for Windows and Linux browser-based clients

Windows and Linux browser users must install a supported version of the Java Runtime Environment before attending online meetings hosted on Sametime® 8.5 or later in which they want to share their screens. Macintosh users are exempt from this requirement.

About this task

Windows and Linux browser-based clients users must install the Oracle JAVA SE JRE version 5 (or higher) Java Runtime Environment. Users do not need to install the JDK (development kit).
