Java version cannot be recognized on java.com

Recently reinstalled system and meet interesting problem. I installed java jdk8, however when I try to verify version on java.com it asks to install java. Meanwhile:

java - version

java version "1.8.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode)

echo %JAVA_HOME%

E:\Programms\Java\JDK8

echo %JRE_HOME%

E:\Programms\Java\JDK8\jre

echo %PATH%

C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Wi
    ndows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;E:\Pr
    ogramms\Java\JDK8\bin;E:\Programms\Java\JDK8\jre\bin;

Java Control Panel > Security > Enable Java content in Browser is checked

Why browser and java.com does not recognize my java instalation? Java plug-in is not included in jdk?

Posting comments as an answer as per request by Yarh:

Probably the browser is 32 bits, then indeed there are not going to be any Java plugins installed in it if you installed the 64 bits Java runtime as part of the JDK. I always install the 64 bits JDK and then separately I install the 32 bits runtime through java.com (minding not to install the flipping toolbar).

There is no conflict to install both a 32 bits runtime and a 64 bits runtime, that is the advised way to support all types of browsers.

I suspect that you need to install the JRE rather than a JDK using the Windows installer at (java.oracle.com).

This should set up everything properly.
