Getting the following sync error while trying to build my first helloWorld program in IntelliJ.

I've installed IntelliJ for the first time on my computer running Windows 10.

    Could not open init generic class cache for initialization script 'C:\Users\nikhils\AppData\Local\Temp\wrapper_init5.gradle' (C:\Users\nikhils\.gradle\caches\6.6.1\scripts\2xaig2b083uxqwleg0fdntova).

build.gradle gradle intellij-idea

Change project and Gradle JDK to the supported version (8—15). Current Gradle release versions do not support Java 16. You would need Gradle 7 if you want to use Java 16.

The easiest way would be to create a new project with Java 11.

Also note that full Java 16 support will be available starting from IntelliJ IDEA 2021.1 release (current release version is 2020.3.3).

See https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/nextversion/ if you want to give it a try.
