Hello! from this link https://portswigger.net/burp/releases/professional-community-1-7-05 I have installed burp suite community edition windows64 bit. Previously i used to get error if i don't install java but now burp suite is working fine after successful configuration. I have seen in this forum post https://forum.portswigger.net/thread/latest-burp-suite-2020-11-3-jar-aa70825b In the above form link https://forum.portswigger.net/thread/latest-burp-suite-2020-11-3-jar-aa70825b it is said that new version of burp suite comes with bundled java...? Is it right please clarify my doubt or iam missing any thing here...? Thanks!

Hi Vijay, The installable versions of Burp come embedded with their own JRE meaning that you do not need an external version of Java installed on your machine in order to run Burp. You do, however, still need access to a version of Java if you wish to run Burp via the standalone Jar file.

Does java required for windows 64 bit burp suite community edition or not.......? Thanks!
