Enabling Java Virtual Console on Windows 11 and Windows Server

I wrote a post about bypassing Java MD5 to run Java KVM viewer, well now to get it to run on the latest version of java and Windows you need to disable it completely or have an alternative to using the iKVM Viewer.

With the MD5 algorithm disabled with the new java, you get an application error attempting to launch the iKVM Viewer as shown below.


To resolve the issue you need to open a text editor program as administrator on windows and browse to your JAVA directory a typical default example is 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre-1.8\lib\security\"

an go to line 694 and disable the jdk.jar.disabedAlgorithms by putting a # in front of the line as shown below.






You will then be able to run the iKVM viewer as shown below.
