The InstallAnywhere installer installs OpenJDK11.0.2. Any Java virtual machine can be bundled with an installer ensuring that the target system meets the minimum requirements for both the installers and your applications. To download additional JRE VM packs, visit https://www.revenera.com/install/products/installanywhere/installanywhere-files-utilities.html and click the VM Packs option.

InstallAnywhere-generated installers are not supported on beta versions or on early-access releases of Java.

InstallAnywhere installers no longer distribute Java 8. InstallAnywhere 2024 supports only Java 11 and later versions. The JAR files in Java 8, usually present in the jre/lib/ and jre/lib/ext/ directories, are also not distributed with Java 11 and later versions, therefore these files will be unavailable.
