And i'll admit it can be done a bit neater, but this works fine for me in a GPO, and is quickly usable for future versions. I'm doing it this way, to prevent uninstallation of some JDK's on developers workstations. Otherwise, i could have used the neat vbs solution elsewhere on the forum.

If you have any tips or tricks for this beginner to improve this, please let me know :)
