I installed jdk-14.0.1_windows-x64_bin.exe from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk14-downloads.html.

I added C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14.0.1\bin to my PATH and JAVA_HOME variables. After this I start a new command prompt and type java -version, and I see the list below, but I don't see java version "14.0.1", why not?

java version "1.8.0_251" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_251-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.251-b08, mixed mode)

I already checked this post.

when you add a new version of Java to your PATH to use it as default you should also make sure that it is the only one in your PATH.

in this case, you already had Java 8 in your PATH and it was being used as default instead of the new Java 14, so the solution is to remove Java 8 from the PATH.
