Q: Annoying nag to install Java
I upgraded to Sierra last night. Now I'm getting a persistent nag to install Java runtime. I don't want to install it. How do I get rid of the nag?

Thanks. I think I've finally got that Java nag to stop. I did trash all my old Adobe apps and all the references I could find to Java and Adobe components in my system files. I then installed the Apple Java from Download Java for OS X 2015-001
That seems to have finally done the trick. Thanks for your suggestions.
If you removed all the apps that are trying to use Java, you don't need Java installed. The nag wasn't caused by the OS but by the apps. macOS and OS X have no use for Java, so the nag isn't caused by the OS itself.
