had problems too. no error during new installation of not detected java.
- win10 64-bit
- openjdk 1.8.0_121_1 64-bit
- octave 4.2.1 64-bit

debugged with Process Monitor

fixed it through adding to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java Runtime Environment
(which had the key "1.8.0_121_1")
the string value "Currentversion" = 1.8.0_121_1
in the registry

JAVA_HOME is setup correctly, but unfortunately not enough for Octave...

What Octave - 32-bit or 64-bit?

If you have 64-bit Java (in C: \Program Files) as you seem to suggest, try to install 32-bit Java as well (no harm on Windows, I've got the same setup) and try to run Octave again.

BTW AFAIK installing Octave shouldn't be hampered by absence of Java or other bit width - Octave should just run but it's just that some functions don't work w/o Java.
