Onboarding
This page walks through the shortest path from installer download to a working Windows Java version manager setup.
Download the Windows MSI installer and complete setup.
Open JDK Manager and scan your machine for existing JDK installations.
Add aliases or accept suggested names for detected JDKs.
Activate the JDK version you want for the current Windows user environment.
Open a new terminal and verify java, javac, JAVA_HOME, and PATH.
If you are installing for the first time, start with the MSI and then move to the switch-Java guide when you want to change versions for different projects.
