java - The specified JDK Version is "2724.0.0.0.0", while the maximum is "500.0.0.0.0"

Question

While installing the Netbeans IDE latest version, i encountered the error

"The specified JDK Version is "2724.0.0.0.0", while the maximum is "500.0.0.0.0" "

Not sure on what is causing this issue. Class Path, Java Home all have been set correctly. Even the jdk path is given correctly in the Netbeans

Kindly help me in the same.

NetBeans 12.5 runs using a JRE which should be either version 8 or 11 (14 also works). To be able to run it, you should install JDK 8 or JDK 11 (Recommended because they are LTS), you can also use JDK 14.

Update: I tried JDK 16.0.2 and it also works. JDK 17 still doesn't work
