Hello kamrul,

It is very easy to add a path of nay file and here you want to add a path to a file of java.

So the way is that you can install it in any of the drive and then right click on that file then there is an option of send to click that navigation and then click the button named as add shortcut to desktop.

Then you’re that file shows a shortcut to your desktop and you will easily open it from desktop with out going to the actual drive. You can also copy that file and paste it anywhere where you want's to have that file.

Another way is that you can drag and drop that file with the help of mouse key to that particular place where you want's that file to show.

Cheers.
