Answer 1

If anyone is having issues with IntelliJ IDEA, go to File -> Project Structure (or press Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S) and remove all JDK 9 entries. JDKs are marked under Platform Settings -> SDKs with a folder behind a tiny blue cup of coffee.

I tried adding the correct path to JDK 1.8 but IntelliJ IDEA will default back to JDK 9 for whatever reason. Unfortunately, I need JDK 9 for other projects, so uninstalling it would be too much of a hassle. If you need to use JDK 9 for another project (like I do), you can still add a JDK 9 entry via the same menu and then remove it again when required.
