you will need java 17 for the latest version.
you need 17 for the updater too, there is an issue where it doesn’t automatically select 17.
the fix is easy

Right click instance > click Edit.. > click Settings > under Java click Detect.. or Auto-Detect.. > double click any version of 17

if you don’t have java 17 installed, you can download it directly from prism launcher, or you can manually install from the website if you’re using multimc https://adoptium.net/en-GB/temurin/rele ... y&arch=any
