What the fuck is that?

Your new programs are being suppressed by your computers regeditor (assuming you're using Windows.), if this is the case:
Hit windows key and r
Type in regedit
Then proceed to delete everything. These are unneeded file the computer creates everytime you do something and slow the computer down over the years.
After that, java and atom will appear on your start menu.

If you're serious about learning to code, use codeacademy. It's really beginner-friendly.

This. It's also probably one of the most painful combinations.

Ditch Atom, get an IDE (Eclipse, IntelliJ Idea)
Lucas Russell
install Python instead
Liam Ward
atom is NOT a meme, IDEs aren't good for beginners, and there's literally nothing wrong with java

So you want to learn programming?
Pick a starting language. For beginners, there are generally two recommended "programming families" that you can choose to start learning:
-Dynamically typed/interpreted programming languages, such as: Python, Perl, Ruby
-Statically typed/compiled programming languages, such as: C, C++, C#
These are amongst the most popular languages in use worldwide, including 4 from the top 5. Both approaches are perfectly fine, and well-documented.
-Dynamically typed programming may be a bit more flexible, convenient, and forgiving. It is more popular in academia.
-Statically typed programming is a bit more suited for making general applications. It is more popular in industries.
Cannot decide? Flip a coin.
If you choose statically typed/compiled programming, you may want to start with C, then pick up C++. C is very well documented, and teaches many universal programming concepts. C++ is based on C, and adds new concepts. Sources:

For C++:

If you choose dynamically typed/interpreted programming, you may want to start with Python. It is very easy to pick up. Here are some good sources:

>BUT I WANT MORE SOURCES!
Read: wiki.installgentoo.com
>BUT I WANNA START WITH [language x] INSTEAD!
Sure, if you like. But the languages above are considered good for beginners.
>BUT I WANNA MAKE A COOL WEBSITE!
Learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
>BUT I WANNA MAKE iPHONE GAMES!
Learn Objective C and/or Swift.
>BUT I WANNA MAKE ANDROID GAMES!
Learn Java.
>BUT I WANNA MAKE PC GAMES!
Learn patience.

Open Atom (wtf nigga just go to /bin or Program Files or whatever)
If you fail the step above install Notepad++, it's idiot-proof.
Write Java that you'll read from Oracle's tutorials.
Run in the terminal/powershell.

That almost always boils down to: it's shit.

it's a very mature language, and also one of the most used in the industry.
