What folder path does Java use to install or update installs. For adding to Software Restriction Policies/Additional Rules ?

Question
-
We have a GPO under Software Restriction Policies/Additional Rules for preventing unwanted apps to run or install in temp directories, %Appdata%, etc.
Java updates are being blocked due to this GPO.
What folder path does Java use to install or update installs? I can add this path and make it unrestricted so that updates can install.
Below is an example for a user to be able to run Spotify. So I need the path info for Java.
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Spotify\spotify.exe
Thank you.

You can check with Adobe on this, or use process explorer to track where the files are being written.
