Answer 1

If you are installing Intellij Idea on a 32 bit System - the JDK will not come within the bundle.

To fix this issue follow the steps below :

1.Uninstall the installed Intellij IDEA

2.Download and install JDK SE 8 from this link : https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-javase8-2177648.html

3.Install Intellij IDEA

Viola !
