Oracle’s Java version has become a paid service, which compels us to use OpenJDK, the open-source version that allows for a commercial form of Java.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to install Java OpenJDK on Windows 10/11.
To do this, we go to the website and download it. In my case, we are going to install OPEN JDK: https://learn.microsoft.com/es-es/java/openjdk/download
Or on the official OpenJDK website: https://openjdk.org/

We finish installing it.
Once installed, we check the installation path, in my case it is:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\jdk-17.0.8.101-hotspot
Since I have installed JDK-17 hotspot, if you have another version, you will need to navigate to:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\
And verify which one is correct.
Now we need to add the JAVA_HOME environment variable, to do this:
Windows 10/11:

Now, once found, open it and look for the Environment Variables option…

Click on New System Variable:

And add the JDK like this:

In Variable Name put: JAVA_HOME
In Variable Value put (in my case): C:\Program Files\Microsoft\jdk-17.0.8.101-hotspot
And now click on OK.
You will need to reload the console for it to find JAVA_HOME.
