I created group policies to disable Java Update on 32 Bit and 64 Bit machines using the following registry keys:
For 32 Bit : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy
For 64 Bit : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy
EnableAutoUpdateCheckDWORD0
NotifyDownload DWORD0
EnableJavaUpdate DWORD0
Delete SunJavaUpdateSched from the below:
For 32 Bit : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
For 64 Bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
The group policies are applying successfully and the registry entries are also updated, however the Update Tab does not disappear from the Java Control Panel. It is Java Version 8. Any idea on this, how to make the update tab disappear? The check for updates automatically is still checked in the Java Control panel, will it still
check for updates on a periodic basis, anything else needs to be done to disable the Java updates?
