Description: The latest update now returns a warning, "LibreOffice requires a 64-bit Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this task. Please install a JRE and restart LibreOffice. https://hub.libreoffice.org/InstallJava/?LOlocale=en-US" even after Java has been installed. Are we seeing a path to Java issue now? Steps to Reproduce: 1. restart LibreOffice 2. 3. Actual Results: LibreOffice requires a 64-bit Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this task. Please install a JRE and restart LibreOffice. https://hub.libreoffice.org/InstallJava/?LOlocale=en-US Expected Results: still receive: "LibreOffice requires a 64-bit Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this task. Please install a JRE and restart LibreOffice. https://hub.libreoffice.org/InstallJava/?LOlocale=en-US" Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: no warning or request repair/fix to path variable where Java is installed.
In Tools -> Options -> Advanced is the checkbox to 'Use a Java runtime environment' checked enabled? And only then have you made a radio button selection? We have had instances when the "provider" of an installed JRE/JDK provider has not matched our well know list, with similar unfound JRE warnings. But that has no happened recently.
Mostly reason for this: Installed is Java for 32bit and LibreOffice for 64bit.

Thanks everyone! Yes, this is a 32 bit version. :-) I probably performed too many in-place clonings, upgrades and updates (I had Java classes many years ago) to get where I am today (Windows 11 with full Python and BioInformatics support in Google CoLab/Jupyter Notebook environments). I will wash my system of 32 bit and reinstall the 64 bit JRE/System.
