Checking presence of Java on your windows machine
We will verify the presence of a JRE/JDK installation on Windows using the following steps:

- Then, select Programs. If your system has a JRE/JDK installed, you should see an icon with the Java logo, as shown in the following screenshot. It is a shortcut to the Java control panel:

In case you are using the small or large icons view for the control panel, you will find the Java icon in the main page.

You checked for the presence of Java on your computer. In case you did not find it, we will install it in the next section.
Did you note the 32-bit string in the Java icon? Indeed, you may download and install Java with two different packages: 32-bit and 64-bit. If you are running a 64-bit operating system, you can select one of them. Using the 64-bit flavor will allow you to use the RAM available on your machine more efficiently and make a larger portion of it available to GeoServer.
