Do not update Java

When connecting to the switch Internet Explore will likely report that Java needs to be updated, do not update it as this will un-do what had been done above, but instead right click the message and select "Run this time" or something similar to it.

Multiple Javas - to do

By deleting all newer versions of Java and installing an older one could break some other apps requiring newer Java.  Further testing will need to be done to see if multiple version can co-exist and selected by Java Control Panel.
