I have Win 7, oh by the way it was working perfectly up to a day ago just before I tried to upgrade. I also have manually removed both java and lw several times. I don't know what to do
It sounds like you used similar to this Reinstallation Technique. For Windows 7, you need to set both the Java & LW installers to Run as Administrator. If you didn't do that first, you can still do it after installing. Right-click the LW shortcut & choose Run as Admin. Likewise with Java.

Also, just very temporarily disable your computer security whilst installing. This might be related to why you were unable to install the online versions.

If still issues, change LW's compatibility mode. There's many options to try, so try each one; sample image here: sample image
