The following are the system requirements for installing the JDK and the JRE on macOS:
To uninstall applications manually you will need to know and understand the MacOS Catalog system and it will take a bit longer. However, if you are new in MacOS then you should learn about Mac hidden library files if you don’t know then during uninstalling your files might be removed accidentally. /Library/PreferencePanes Classic Mac: Stores system configuration programs, which are loaded at boot time. OS X: Stores the various properties that appear in System Preferences. Question: Q: Could not load Network preference pane Out of the blue, my network preference pane now fails to load. The first sign was that Airport card monitor in the status bar showed no reception and, worse, says 'Airport card not installed'.

Administrator privileges.
You cannot install Java for a single user. Installing the JDK and JRE on macOS is performed on a systemwide basis for all users. Administrator privileges are required to install the JDK and JRE on macOS.
When you install the JDK, it also installs the JRE. However, the system will not replace the current JRE with a lower version.
To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.
When you install the JRE, you can install only one JRE on your system at a time. The system will not install a JRE that has an earlier version than the current version.
To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.
Note:
Installing a JRE from Oracle will not update java -version
symlinks or add java
to your path. To do this, you must install the JDK.
