Issue installing Netbeans in Windows 10: Java SE Development Kit (JDK) was not found on this computer

I'm trying to install the TMC Netbeans version on Windows 10. I'm getting this error:

Java SE Development Kit (JDK) was not found on this computer

JDK 7 is required for installing Netbeans with TMC 1.1.8. Make sure that the JDK is properly installed and run installer again. You can specify valid JDK location using --javahome installer argument.

I got the same error using the regular version of Netbeans. I know it is installed correctly because I got IntelliJ to work just fine. How do I fix this issue? I've been searching for answers, but I haven't found anything for Windows 10?

Also, I have JDK 9 installed.

Took me some time to overcome this. This is what I did: 1.During installation of JDK change the path from jdk-9.x.x to jdk 2.open netbeans installer location in command prompt and type: netbeans.exe --javahome "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk"

On Win10 I tried this and it works: 1. jdk-8u181-windows-x64.exe 2. netbeans-8.2-windows.exe This works. Else, with JDK 10, I got everytime the error message listed in this Topic.

Just install java 8. Because java 10 is not work properly with netbeans. Download and install jdk-8u181.exe for Netbeans 8.2 to install properly.

I just had the same error. I downloaded the netbeans IDE then downloaded the JDK, still had the error. I restarted my computer and tried the installer again and it worked.
