Hi, I'm facing issues with my Fedora22. 32 1- tried to update Java as a pop message showed up a week ago, later on everything stopped working properly and I don't even find Java in my plugins in firefox. 2- youtube doesn't work, black screen all the time, I have tried html5 and everything around here on internet but still doesn't work.
From what you wrote, it seems more that by clicking on the popup message you have been infected (script...). You can run an antivirus from a live-usb-key. Some ISOs will much more fit with your computer (bios/efi, file system, luks...). For example :
Let me know if you need a guideline to configure luks with esets.
Then, you can reinstall firefox and the java packages :
sudo dnf reinstall firefox java-1.8.0-openjdk java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel javapackages-tools java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless icedtea-web
The last one is the Java plug-in for Firefox.

Java is to JavaScript what Car is to carpet. Java ships with JavaScript. Cars ship with carpets. You can't run Java in JavaScript, and you can't run a Car in a carpet; neither statement even makes sense. I suggest you change the title to "enable java browser plugin".
