Optionally Set the Environment Variable
You can set a system envrionment variable JAVA_HOME if you wish. This can be useful if you have other applications that use Java. However, for the operation of PhixFlow itself, this is not needed, and most operators choose not to add this. Even if you do not set JAVA_HOME, Java programs that need to operate PhixFlow will be added to your path. I.e. you can call them from the command line by using the program name alone.
If you decide to set JAVA_HOME as a system envrionment variable, specify the base installation directory of Java, for example:
C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jdk-8.0.312.7-hotspot
