[FIXED] Upgrade to Java 11 on Windows 10

Issue

I tried to Upgrade Java on my laptop (running Windows 10) from Java 10 to Java 11. I downloaded and installed the Java 11 SDK from the Oracle website and then I added the address of the bin folder into the Path System Variable and changed JAVA_Home to point to the new jdk file.

Path System Variable looks like this:

....;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.1\bin

And JAVA_HOME:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.1

Still, when I open CMD and run: java --version I get Java 10 although with javac --version I get Java 11.

I followed the steps described here: How to install OpenJDK 11 on Windows?

Solution

With the comment's help and looking at this question I found out that the problem was that the C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath appeared before the Java 11 path, so I moved it to the bottom and now both java and javac point correctly to Java 11.

Here's the requested screenshot of the Path variable after I made the change in order:
