I was issued a new laptop. It is running Windows 11 Version 24H2
The company has removed all Oracle based Java. The company standard for a JRE is something called OpenWebStart. I am not able to determine if it is 32 or 64bit software.
I installed it and then attempted to install ACS and received the following error:

My question is "Is ACS looking for java to be in a certain folder" if so what folder?
I have tried installing the 64bit ACS, when that failed I tried installing 32bit ACS. Both attempts resulted in the same error
I have attached a screen shot of the error message dialog box that was display.
Thanks
