You don't run the JDK from an icon in the Control panel. I don't know why there is a problem with that icon.
If the JDK is installed, there should be a bin folder inside the installation folder that contains the javac.exe file that is used for compiling java programs.
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
