If you’re like me and you tend to wonder what things you have installed on your system or you want to take good care of your system, you’ll find yourself regularly looking at Add/Remove Programs to decide on what junk you can remove from your system.

When doing so, one thing will stick out like a sore thumb if you’ve been a good computer user and have been keeping your system up to date: multiple installations of different Java versions. Now, you could go and manually uninstall all the other Java versions – like I used to do – but why waste time?

Today’s Curious Finding makes that task as simple as clicking a few times. JavaRa by RaProducts allows you to easily remove older versions of Java and update your system to the latest version with a few clicks of your mouse.

RaProducts describes it best:

"JavaRa is a simple tool that does a simple job: it removes old and redundant versions of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). Simply select “Check for Updates” or “Remove Older Version” to begin."

System Requirements: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista without UAC (although I can use it just fine with UAC).

License: JavaRa is completely free and open source.
