The JRE is one of three parts that work together to make Java programmes and run them. Installing the 32-bit JRE on a 64-bit Windows system is straight forward. The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is a layer of software that runs on top of a computer’s operating system software and gives a Java programme the class libraries and other resources it needs to run. Windows 64-bit systems are able to utilize 32-bit and 64-bit JRE's keeping them in separate locations for system clarity. The IDL and ENVI Help System, along with the IDL Workbench, require 32-bit JRE's to operate properly.
