Could not find tools.jar. Please check that C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_151 contains a valid JDK installation

Question

Even though I manually configured JDK project structure file/Project structure it still shows this error FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

`What went wrong:

Answer 1

What I did was download the JDK from here, start a windows command prompt (windows+r CMD) and set the environment variable JAVA_HOME to c:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14 with:

set JAVA_HOME="c:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14"

Then run what I wanted to run. It failed afterwards, but on a different issue.
