I wanted to debug my project under Open JDK 11, so I tried to switch boot jdk to the OpenJDK11 path. I am using the community version on Windows 10. The suggested restart didn't happen, I only got the following error: JDK needed

How can I reset the boot jdk without Intellij starting?

Thanks in advance and kind regards

The IntelliJ Advanced Configuration docs say the configuration directory on windows is:

Syntax

%HOMEPATH%\.<product><version>\config 

Example

C:\Users\JohnS\.IntelliJIdea2019.3\config 

Then, just delete the studio.jdk file in that directory, and IntelliJ will boot with its default.
