Unable to determine bundled Java version | Quick Fix

When you encounter the error message “unable to determine bundled Java version,” it means that the application or software you are trying to run is not able to determine the version of Java that is bundled with it. This can happen if the Java installation is corrupted or the Java environment variables are incorrectly set.

To find the Java version, you can try the following steps:

  1. Check the Java installation on your system: Check whether Java is installed on your system. If so, ensure that the installation is not corrupted. You can check the Java version by running the following command in the terminal or command prompt: Java -version
  2.  Set the Java environment variables: Ensure that the Java environment variables are set correctly. The two environment variables required for Java to run are JAVA_HOME and PATH. JAVA_HOME should point to the Java installation directory, and PATH should include the Java bin directory. You can set these variables using the following commands.
  3.  export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java/installation export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
  4.  Reinstall Java: If the above steps do not work, try uninstalling and reinstalling Java.

For Windows

If you’re using a Windows operating system, you can follow these steps to check the bundled Java version:

  1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
  2.  Type “cmd” and press Enter to open the Command Prompt.
  3.  Type “java -version” and press Enter.
  4.  The output will show the version of the bundled Java installed on your system.

For MAC

If you’re using a Mac operating system, you can follow these steps to check the bundled Java version:

  1. Open the Terminal application.
  2.  Type “java -version” and press Enter.
  3.  The output will show the version of the bundled Java installed on your system.

For example, if the output shows something like “java version 1.8.0_291”, you have Java version 1.8.0_291 installed on your system.

Alternative method:

Alternatively, you can check the Java version through the system’s Control Panel (on Windows) or System Preferences (on macOS) by following these steps:

  1. Open the Control Panel (Windows) or System Preferences (macOS).
  2.  Click on the “Java” icon (if available).
  3.  Click on the “About” button or tab.
  4.  The version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) currently installed on your system will be displayed.

If the above steps do not work, you may need to check your system documentation or contact your system administrator or technical support for further assistance.

Note that the steps to determine the Java version may vary slightly depending on your operating system and version.
