javaw keeps restoring itself


My javaw.exe process is infinitely restoring itself launching a windows error windows saying

A Java Exception has ocurred

I've tried taskkill, windows task manager and they keep coming back. How do I fix this?


Solution

  • Well, I managed to stop the infinite cycle. It's not a very formal way but worked. I tried to restart Windows, pressed "Force restart" when it listed processes that were still running and when I saw that javaw had been forcibly shutdown, I canceled the restart.
