          You can simply make a clean install of Java.



          -sudo update-alternatives --remove "java" "<javaPath>"



          -sudo update-alternatives --remove "javac" "<javacPath>"



          -sudo update-alternatives --remove "javaws" "<javawsPath>"



          -sudo rm -r /usr/lib/jvm/jdk*



          -sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove openjdk*



          -sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove openjdk*



          -sudo apt-get update



          -sudo apt-get install default-jre



          -sudo apt-get install default-jdk

          • @Rubens_Zimbres can you provide an example of what do you refer to as Java 'cache'?

          • Temporary internet files: trace, log files, cached applications and applets.
