I have Java 1.7.0_06 on windows 7. How can I get it to switch to use 1.6.0.23 without uninstalling the newer version? I have an applet browser program that needs to use the older but it locks up when when i try to use it.

For command line stuff:

edit the path and java_home variables. Under my computer-properties-advanced-environment variables etc etc.

For brower:

You will need to change the helper in the browser config - this will be browser dependant.
