When running a Java-based application, it’s common to receive the message dialog: “Java(TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.”. This message means that the application has been becoming unresponsive.
- Click the “Close program” button that will exit the application. It also closes the application window.

Minecraft is by far the most frequently reported application that crashes with this particular error message.
