Java Installation

Installation Guide

Here is a step-by-step guide for installing Java on a Windows machine:

  1. Download the Java SE Development Kit (JDK) from the Oracle website: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-downloads.html (opens in a new tab)

  2. Click on the "Download" button for the latest JDK release.

  3. Accept the Oracle Binary Code License Agreement for Java SE, then select the appropriate installer for your system. Make sure to select the correct version (e.g., Windows x64 if you are running a 64-bit version of Windows).

  4. Once the download is complete, double-click on the installer file to begin the installation process.

  5. Follow the prompts to complete the installation. You will be asked to specify a destination folder for the JDK files. It is recommended to use the default location, unless you have a specific reason to install it elsewhere.

  6. Once the installation is complete, you will need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the location of the JDK installation. To do this, follow these steps:

  • Right-click on "This PC" and select "Properties"
  • Click on the "Advanced system settings" link on the left side
  • Click on the "Environment Variables" button
  • Under "System Variables", scroll down and find the "JAVA_HOME" variable
  • Click "Edit" and enter the path to the JDK installation (e.g., C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_241)
  • Click "OK" to close the Environment Variables window, then "OK" again to close the System Properties window
java -version

If Java is correctly installed, you should see output similar to this:

java version "1.8.0_241"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_241-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.241-b07, mixed mode)
