Hello world,

since the update to Java 8 Update 161 users on Windows report frequent crashes of the Java VM.

This is a problem that only Oracle can solve.

As a workaround, you could install Java 8 Update 152. Either 

http://static.routeconverter.com/downloa...eases/jre/

or directly from Oracle:

1. Deinstall the installed Java
   
2. go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/j...77648.html 
   
3. Click on Accept License Agreement
   
4. Click on jdk-8u152-windows-x64.exe
   
5. Create an Account and login
   
6. Perform the download 
   
7. Install Java 8 Update 152
   

There are news: Oracle has fixed the bug already:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8196011

I'm now hoping for a new Java 8 Release so that the error reports for Update 161 stop coming in :-)

Another update: the bug affects Java 8 Update 171/172 too :-(

A last update: Java 8 Update 181/182 doesn't show the bug :-)
