One click Java setup about java-wdb HOT 5 OPEN

The Microsoft way will be using winget.

You can install winget already, and then run winget install adoptopenjdk and this will get the JDK available for you on the %PATH% as well as setup %JAVA_HOME% automatically.

Give it a try and let me know if there is something else missing

One issue is most people don't know about winget. Windows gives plenty of tips when tryin to do something. Maybe promote winget if someone is trying to install common dev tools.

@crimsonvspurple Completely agree. Winget is still very new - it was only unveiled 5 months ago, and is still being built, but it the team are aiming to release it next year, whereupon it will be ubiquitously available on all supported versions of Windows 10.

We are keen to strike a reasonable balance between letting users know that Winget exists, what it's for, how to use it, etc., and not annoying people unnecessarily. It's sometimes a tough balance to achieve, but you can expect to see much more noise being made about winget in the coming year.

If you're interested in learning more and staying up to date with winget news I'd recommend following @denelonms on Twitter, and/or keeping an eye on the Winget repo.

HTH.

Well, it is solution for now. But if you prefer everything from Microsoft, it is still a nice idea.
