It should be as simple as downloading the version you need from here https://www.java.com/en/download/ (You'll probably want the 64-bit executable) and then running that .exe. On the off chance that doesn't work, you can specifically download the Java 17 SDK from the archive here, but that shouldn't be required. All you should need to run Minecraft is the Java Runtime Environment. https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk17-archive-downloads.html Answer from MGlBlaze on reddit.com
