So, I have a spare Windows 10 desktop in my office and, since I'm a glutton
for punishment, decided to experiment.

1) I uninstalled Oracle java.
2) After doing so, I still had to delete the C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java
folder.
3) I also had to manually remove C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java from the Path.
4) I created C:\java\jdk-11.0.1+13-jre from the OpenJ9 download.
5) I added C:\java\jdk-11.0.1+13-jre to the Path.
6) Rebooted.

ACS does not start. It's asking for what app do you want to open .jar
files?

I think you'll need to go down to \bin, so C:\java\jdk-11.0.1+13-j\bin

For tinkering with PATH, I use Rapid Environment Editor from
rapidee.com. I edit the PATH, then open a new Command window to test it.

Our IT people haven't mentioned this yet.
