Selected directory is not a valid home for JDK - Intellij IDEA2016 on Windows

Question

I met a problem when I set the sdk for Intellij Idea2016

My Idea can set JDK1.7 successfully, but when set the jdk1.8, it will warn "Selected directory is not a valid home for JDK":

can somebody help me?

Do you have an environment variable `JAVA_HOME` in your system ? — Jorge Campos, Jun 18 '16 at 03:55
For which one it is pointing? _91 or _92? It could be your issue if it is pointing to _91 and you are trying to set II to _92. If you change the environment don't forget to close the II and open it again — Jorge Campos, Jun 18 '16 at 04:16
I fixed it yesterday, you can see my answer below. Thank you very much — Eumendies, Jun 20 '16 at 01:38

I found the issue after whole morning. Maybe the Intellij Idea 2016.1.3 doesn't support the latest two version what are jdk1.8.0_91 and jdk1.8.0_92.

Hope you would resolve the issue if met.
