ℹ New in v. 2.0.5.0:

  • bugfix: API semver parsing is more reliable now. Solves #72
  • Updated dependencies

⚠ Unfortunately, if you install Eclipse Temurin™ 21.0.1+12.1 or 17.0.9+9.1, you may experience an update loop.
This is not a bug in Update Watcher, this is caused by a bug in release metadata. I will try to contact Adoptium Team to resolve it later.
SOLUTION: "skip" 21.0.1+12.1 or 17.0.9+9.1 releases after you've installed it - so no further suggestions for updating will appear.
Please see https://github.com/tushev/aojdk-updatewatcher/wiki/Skipping-releases on how to do it.


Full Changelog: 2.0.4.0...2.0.5.0

🏷 As you may know, AdoptOpenJDK project moved to the Eclipse Foundation and rebranded.
The updater is still branded as Update Watcher for AdoptOpenJDK and continues to work with api.adoptopenjdk.net.
This is a 'hotfix' release, that fixes an urgent bug #72. All other changes, such as rebranding and/or API change, will (possibly) happen in the future.


🛠 Installation & configuration

First Run

  1. Turn on Check for AdoptOpenJDK updates on Logon. (If you want another schedule, turn this on and press Edit task to configure it as desired).
  2. Turn on automatic discovery of AdoptOpenJDK installations.

👉 Please note that only MSI-installed JDKs/JREs can be discovered automatically (because only MSIs add corresponding registry keys automatically). ZIP-extracted JDKs/JREs or very old MSIs cannot be autodiscovered.
