Here you go, works on default Windows 10/11 install:

- open terminal

- winget install -e --id ojdkbuild.openjdk.11.jdk

> The winget command line tool enables users to discover, install, upgrade, remove and configure applications on Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers. This tool is the client interface to the Windows Package Manager service.

Ah, winget. Another proof that Microsoft never stopped being abusive as fuck.

Inviting over open source developers under false pretenses, milking them for all the knowledge of their projects and then proceeding to ghost them for months before releasing a complete ripoff of the original open source project.

At least they wont suffer a culture clash from the Activision acquisition.
