I also am having the Java unzip issue, I’ve used the Windows Clean Up. No Java there. Add/ Remove Programs and no Java there. Still receiving error. Help please.
Having problems with Java when attempting to Unzip is a common error. It sounds as though you have gone through the initial steps of eliminating the problem. Try the tips suggested here to see if you can resolve the problem.
Why the Java Unzip Error Occurs
When the installation process for the application has encountered a glitch and failed to install properly, it often results in an error. A Java core file fails to install since they cannot unzip and the Java installation fails as a result. As you’ve already discovered, unless you fix the problem, you will not be able to use Java. Typically, what happens is the computer mistakenly thinks that a Java process is running and won’t continue with the installation. Go through each one of the suggested strategies until you discover the one that resolves the issue for you.
