Perhaps you didn't fully understand what I suggested?

That link provides a way to search the current PATH, and determine what
Code:
C:\> java.exe
resolves to.

There would be no need to manually update either Doitsu's epubcheck plugin OR the calibre Open With plugin, because the calibre plugin is saving the java path before clearing everything else away.


Trust me, I wasn't suggesting Yet Another Way to manually update it every time, I have no patience for manual updating myself.

...

That being said, using calibre to open a book in Sigil is slightly roundabout, considering calibre has its own builtin Editor...

I'd also like to know why, oh why, does Java feel the need to make highly unpredictable paths, and why has Microsoft never figured out how to provide a decent CLI, but that is getting waaaaaaaaaaaay offtopic.
java is always /usr/bin/java on MY computer.
