M MikeSW17 Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Nov 27, 2020 #2 Just follow the instructions here: Installation Instructions. There's no version 15 mentioned. You only have a choice of 'Oracle Java 8' or 'OpenJDK 11'. OpenJDK is preferred but requires a 64bit Windows OS. VERY IMPORTANT though, is to un-zip the package you choose with 7-Zip as Windows Explorer (sometimes?) Corrupts the Folder Structure . Upvote 0

B4A – The simple way to develop native Android apps B4A includes all the features needed to quickly develop any type of Android app. B4A is used by tens of thousands of developers from all over the world, including companies such as NASA, HP, IBM and others. www.b4x.com Unzip archives using 7-Zip as File Explorer can get the folder structure wrong - Even Microsoft admits this, a few days ago I downloaded a zip from a Microsoft site that explicitly said to not use File Explorer ?
