Here's a solution that worked for me:
- Open a new finder window and navigate to
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/. There you will find a file namedJavaAppletPlugin.plugin. - Control + Click this file and choose
Show Package Contentsfrom the contextual menu. - Inside the package, navigate to
/Contents/Home/bin/. - Double click the
ControlPanelfile to display the Java Control Panel. Change any settings as you wish and then save it. - From now on, the panel will be available as always from
“Apple” menu > System Preferences...
Note: if you don't find the JavaAppletPlugin.plugin file inside the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ folder, open the Terminal.app and create a symlink from the original:
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Java/Support/CoreDeploy.bundle/Contents/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin

They removed Java Control Panel in
Java 11.
Open this release notes Removal of Java Deployment Technologies, it says
The Java Plugin and Java WebStart technologies that were deprecated in JDK 9 and marked as candidates for removal in JDK 10 have now been removed. Please note that the Java Control Panel, which was used for configuring the deployment technologies, has also been removed along with the shared system JRE (but not the server JRE) and the JRE Auto-Update mechanism. More details are available in this white paper.
Also, If you go through this web page, JDK 11 Is Released!
There is the last bullet point where it says
The deployment stack, required for Applets and Web Start Applications has been removed. This includes the Java Control Panel used for configuring the deployment technologies, the shared system JRE (but not the server JRE), and the JRE Auto-Update mechanism.

Hey guys do any one know about where the control panel java can be found in mac os Ventura. it is available in the older settings app (At that time it is called System preference). you can found a java icon in the older settings app. Now after update i can not find anywhere.
It is somewhat maddening, but the Java console won't display unless a Java application is actually running. The easiest way to get it started is to visit https://www.java.com/verify/ from the Firefox browser.
If you're opening a Runnable Jar (one which you click in finder to open), just try running it in terminal (from Spotlight search) using java -jar /path/to/file.jar.
If it's a Java Web Applet, you need to go into System Preferences -> Java -> Advanced -> Show Console -> Apply. From here, you'll need to actually run the program before the console displays, as @danorton said.
