  • Does this answer your question? [Could not find tools.jar. Please check that C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0\_151 contains a valid JDK installation](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47291056/could-not-find-tools-jar-please-check-that-c-program-files-java-jre1-8-0-151-c) – Hakan Dilek Jul 04 '21 at 13:32
  • yes somewhat..im trying to have my JAVA_HOME path match the path of the installation of JAVA on my Mac and I am just not sure how to accomplish this – Matt Laszcz Jul 04 '21 at 13:43
  • usually setting `JAVA_HOME=YOUR_JDK_PATH` and adding `$JAVA_HOME/bin` to your `PATH` variable helps. – Hakan Dilek Jul 04 '21 at 14:12
