Java, stop it

If you are a person with a Macbook OS X and using Yosemite or El Capitan then you would have seen this dreadful pop up. I just download a thing that has hopefully stopped this stupid popup. I got it from Apple itself https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
I will post an update to see if the pop-up continues. Has anyone else been dealing with this? It is because Java decided to not work with Google Chrome which is total bogus because there is a lot I use on Chrome! I use the extensions a lot and most do not work for Firefox or Safari.
I hope this little Java for OS X works because I would like to play video games without having to pause randomly because of this pop-up.

I'm a Windows kind-of-guy. And I'm not a fan of Chrome. I keep trying it, but it keeps disappointing me. Still, I am sorry you are experiencing difficulty.

I want a windows, I got my macbook because of school. It has many things that everyone hates. It is a good computer but everyone is biased against it. I hope that whatever I did works, because the interruption is unbearable.

@DesirousDreamer I hear you. There are great features about Mac, but unfortunately, there is a snob-appeal to them as well. Not you. I'm not saying that. As to the Java business, I think there is more than one use of the word. There is Javascript and something else. My son knows better about that. I use Java (just updated the other day) with no repercussions to date.

@KuznVinny Yeah the snob-appeal is rather hideous. I love it but I would love to have a Windows laptop again. I love PC gaming and I cannot do that as well on an Apple product.

Indeed, they keep screwing it up and it is a shame because they were doing so well. But now they just lost their edge.
