Does LO(base) only run on the latest version of Java?

Version: 7.6.4.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: e19e193f88cd6c0525a17fb7a176ed8e6a3e2aa1
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.1 Service Pack 1 Build 7601; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded

I have removed and reinstalled Running Java 7 update 13, twice. Including the hour while windows 7 goes out for coffee instead of rebooting.

But LO still cannot find the JRE even when I send it to “C:\Program Files\Java\jre7”

Does LO only run on the latest version of Java?
