Attempting to update to jre-7u67 from 65 did not appear to work. On reattempting, installation failed with a “Access is denied” message. JDK was still there but I followed recommendations to remove all Java applications and references. Then both new or old JREs and JDKs failed with the same message. A log entry for JDK was “JDK installation failed. Return Code: 1603, ErrorCode: 0 updating component registration”. Can anyone help?

Download and run the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Fixit Tool here: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/program_install_and_uninstall/en
Once prompted to select a program to remove, select your JDK/JRE you're trying to reinstall. Doing so will uninstall them. Then once that is completed, you may proceed to installing the JDK/JRE.
Hope that helps!
