Fail to launch on Windows 10

[DiepEsc]

After I downloaded the zip, extracted it, double click on the megit.exe. The error appears. This is the log

@DiepEsc Sorry you are having troubles running MeGit. Which Java version do you have installed?

[DiepEsc]

Thanks @planger. I use Java 1.8

[planger]

I see! MeGit requires Java 11 or higher. I'd recommend version 17 (e.g. OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin), this is the latest long-term support version.
