Seems like a duplicate of #431 (comment). Make sure you uninstall georgewfraser.vscode-javac

@fbricon Thank you for you help. The first one got solved . The second one is a little harder for me to solve.
The java.home variable defined in VS Code settings points to a missing folder
fbricon commentedon Feb 14, 2018
make sure java.home points to the java home folder, not java.exe

@fbricon Copy pasted this. I still cant star writing codes :(
C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_131
fbricon commentedon Feb 14, 2018
can you try with backslashes?
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131or
C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_131cryptojonnyboy commentedon Feb 14, 2018
@fbricon I tried both of them it is quite presistent. Anymore things I can try?

Could you try
cryptojonnyboy commentedon Feb 15, 2018
@snjeza @fbricon I installed the software on my other pc with windows 7 its working like charm there so lets hope its stays that way. Well I tried your code and its not working @snjeza. Thank you @fbricon and @snjeza.

@snjeza I tried your code with different pathname since my computer has 32-bit OS and 64-bit and the message does not appear anymore. So I guess its working thank you!
"java.home": "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131"

@cryptojonnyboy so you made it work on your win10 machine with "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131"? or were you referring to your win7 pc?
cryptojonnyboy commentedon Feb 15, 2018
@fbricon Hello, its working on my windows 10 machine with this code "java.home": "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.8.0_131"
