JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory:

Question

You should set it with C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12.

\bin is not required.

JAVA_HOME should point to the home jdk directory, and not to jdk/bin directory.

You need to set the JAVA_HOME like this:

JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131"

Remove the \bin, and also remove the ; at the end. After restart the cmd and run.

Try the following:

• Remove \bin from JAVA_HOME path.
• Open new command line window.
• Run your command as an administrator.

On Window 10, the problem was with the semicolon ;.

Go to edit the system environment variables and delete the semicolon at the end of JAVA_HOME value C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_144

In other words, convert this C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12; to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12

You might have to delete your entry in the Windows Dialog and create a new one. If you ever had multiple entries and get the bigger Form view, Windows automatically inserts a ; at the end of each entry, even if you only have one entry left.

JAVA_HOME should be C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_172 don't include semi-colon(;) or bin in path. Any jdk version above 7 will work. Also, you need to re-start the cmd
