Description
With the fix for:

6247771: uninstall JDK does not remove demo dir on Windows 

An msi validation error was introduced.  MSI has a validation tool that you can run on msi files to ensure that there is nothing potentially wrong with them.  In 5.0, we cleaned up our msi file so that there are no errors.  Customers will feel confident in using our msi, because there are no errors.  

This msi validation error is with the jre msi file only.  It does not seem to cause any problems with the installation itself, but it looks bad to customers who may run msi validation our jre msi file.

The fix is a simple 1 line fix.
