Tailor Version: v0.12.0
Platform (Mac/Linux/Windows/CI): Windows
Installation Method: Powershell Script

I have installed java version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16 LTS on my Windows 10 machine and correctly set the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

The HKLM:\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment does not exist on my machine, thus trying to install resolved in an error. There's a HKLM:\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\JDK\11 though. Commenting the verify-java() function in the .ps1 script installs tailor successfully.

Maybe checking for which java or something similar is better than checking for the registry entry.
