I had ti install java before games could be played on the wife's laptop and now, when clicked to play game I get a pop up saying security has blocked the game from loading I assume, it's the java security. If anyone could help me fix this problem, maybe I won't have to listen to griping. :( I have to use firefox as the IE 11 seems to be gone tried to do sfc scan with no luck. Thanks! :)

Please inform us of the exact wording of the popup and your AV. Does the popup say "Windows Defender blocked..." or something similar.

You may want to "google" the game download to see if there are reports of malware. Java itself can be a vulnerability. Some suspect sites will state you need to download java, when in fact you do not.

It also could be you need to make an exception on your AV for the game to download.
