Unlike Unix or Linux, there is not portable installer. Instead we need to make it by installing on a test machine and copying the directory out to your target computer. For your convenience, below are portable versions we have already made,

Go to the Java website, choose the JRE or JDK based on your platform and needs. Download the requisite installer file and install with default settings on your test machine. For older versions of Java go to the Java Archives site.

Simply copy the Java directory . It is recommended to duplicate the format used by Unix and LInux .bin files and specifying 32-bit versus 64-bit. Your directory should look something like this,
- C:\apps\eclipse\jre1.6.0_18_32-bit
- /home/tpham/apps/eclipse/jre1.6.0_18_32-bit
and place it on your target machine. Java runs fine without being bound to the Windows registry.
