I recently updated to the latest Java release, also the player for Adobe Flash and Shockwave. Download Spotify desktop version and that was it.

Reboot into Safe Mode.

 

Go to;  "C:\Program Files\Java"

And then into any/all  JRExxxxx\bin  folders  ( example: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_60\bin )

Rename;  javaws.exe  to;  javaws.exe.BAK

 

Reboot into Normal Mode.

 

Then go to;  Control Panel --> "Programs and Features"

 

Remove all versions of Oracle Java.

 

If you have a need or still want Oracle Java, reinstall/install v8 update 60 .
