Installing Java on Windows
First, test if java is installed by opening a command prompt and typing:
java --version
If not installed, or the version is older than version 17, then proceed with installation.
Strongly recommended is the Microsoft build of Open JDK. If not installed or an older version, it is best to get the latest build. As of April 2022, jdk-17.0.2+8.
There are other ways to install Java but direct download is easiest on Windows 10
Download, then unzip the download. Ccopy the JDK folder into C:\Program Files as shown.
