🔃 New in v. 2.0.0.0

  • Support for multiple AdoptOpenJDK installations
  • Automatic discovery of installations via Windows Registry
  • Redesigned UI/UX
  • App warns if N last consecutive background update checks were unsuccessful (default N=10)
  • Limited support for Most recent/ Most recent LTS options
  • Other improvements, perfomance optimisations etc.

🛠 Installation & configuration

  1. Run the downloaded installer and run the app (internet connection highly recommended on first run :)
  2. Turn on Check for AdoptOpenJDK updates on Logon. (If you want another schedule, turn this on and press Edit task to configure it as desired).
  3. Turn on automatic discovery of AdoptOpenJDK installations.

Please note that only MSI-installed JDKs/JREs can be discovered (because only MSIs add corresponding registry keys automatically)

That's all!
