Is that the whole error message that you see?

You could try updating Java (or reinstalling, if you already have the latest update): Java Downloads for All Operating Systems - Sun Microsystems

Download the offline installer & remove any other Java versions via Control Panel before installing this one. Restart your computer after installing the new Java.

Default thanks to Birdy

hello Birdy
thank you. the way it worked is that i deleted JAVA and then reinstalled LW - during the installation the LW software automatically installed JAVA and I am in business.

thanks again
