Do I need to download the JVM to run a java program on my PC since I am not a developer?

-2

I need to download the JVM to run a java program on my PC since I am not a developer, that is, I will only need the JVM, just to run this program? Better, how do programs made in java run on people's machines without them downloading the JVM, do not even know what that is? Thank you very much for answering me, I live with this question in my head. :

Yes.

  

Better, how do java-based programs run on people's machines without them downloading the JVM, do not even know what that is?

For most Java programs, yes, you have to download the JVM.

There are two cases that run away from this:

  • Some Java executable programs already have a built-in JVM inside them.

  • Some programs install the JVM as part of their installation process.
