Hi,
You can try to install both Java 1.7 and 1.8 in your machine. Set an appropriate java environment for your product in environment variable.
Java 1.7 for V 5.x.x and Java 1.8 for V 6.x.x
Let us know if it is Ok with you.
Best regards

Hi,
We can't see the screenshot on our side. Could you attach it on the forum, please? That would be great.

There is no link to set the both the environment variables.
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Usually, we set [/font]JDK 1.7 for V 5.x.x and then changing the environment variables setting to JDK 1.8(point java home to JDK1.8 installation path) by manual.

The way that I do this is as follows.

1) Set up a "Talend" root folder
2) Within the root folder, create a folder per version (I have 5.5.1, 5.6.1, 6.0.1, 6.1.1 and 6.2.1 at the moment).
3) Create a location to keep your Java installs (mine are relative to my installs)
4) Find the correct .ini file for the Talend .exe you start Talend with for each version and edit it to point to the correct version of Java. An example of one of mine is below....

-vm
..\..\java\jdk1.8.0_91\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs

-Xms512m

-Xmx2048m

-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
