在没有管理员权限的情况下更改 Windows 10 中的 Java_Home 路径

Question

I have a windows 10 laptop and I donot have admin rights. But there is already jdk 11 installed in my laptop with JAVA_HOME set in system variables. So one of my project does not compile with java 11 and I needed to install jdk 8 and I followed this instructions and installed it.

I have set the JAVA_HOME again in the user variables. But when I tried to see the version using java --version I could only see the jdk 11 that is set in system variables and I cannot see the jdk 8 that I installed in the C:/Users directory. So how can I set/change the JAVA_HOME for my maven project to build in git bash and run the spring boot app.

EDIT: note: I have also added the %JAVA_HOME%\\bin to User variables Path.

Answer 1

As suggested, you can add to the PATH the %JAVA_HOME%\\bin https://maven.apache.org/install.html

Then using the ff. command, verify what JDK version your maven using

mvn -v

you should see something like this
