JNI Error: Exception due to incompatible Java versions

[sqylogin]

I am running across the following error when running Audiveris.bat in Windows 11:

Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Audiveris has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

I have uninstalled all Java for Windows Runtime, and reinstalled the latest version that is available online (https://www.java.com/download/ie_manual.jsp), which is Version 8 Update 351 released in October 18, 2022. However, I am still getting an error.

Please make sure you have JDK 17 installed (not 8)
