    I'm trying to get either Adoptium JDK or the official Oracle JDKs to work on Windows 11 22H2. Whenever I try to install it and use it, literally the only file that doesn't work is javaw.exe. Problem pictured below. Clearly the file exists; it even comes up when I do dir <installation path> in Command Prompt. The Oracle JDK in particular is installed when these screenshots were taken.

    :)

    Can't open .jar files using Java 17, please help!

    When I try to open .jar files using java 17 the file doesn't open. I tried reinstalling Java 17, and it still didn't work. When I clicked open with>choose another app>more apps>look for another app on this PC>Java folder>jdk-17.0.4>bin. There I found two different java files java and javaw. I tried to open the files with both and it still didn't work. This is very frustrating because I can't install things that require java or I can't open .jar files.

    Please Help WIth Java 17 Known as JDK 17

    Hi Jonathan. I'm Greg, here to help you with this.

    Try these steps to install JDK 17 on Windows 10:

    https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/18/insta...

    https://geekyscript.com/how-to-install-java-jdk...

    https://java.com/download/help/troubleshoot_jav...



    If none of those do it, do you have an error message or specific behavior when it fails, and at what stage or step? The more information you give me, the easier it will be to get installed.

    Feel free to ask back any questions. Based on the detailed results you post back, I will have other suggestions if necessary.
