Managed by the Eclipse Foundation, Temurin is a community-led, completely free, and open-source OpenJDK distribution that is rigorously tested and regularly patched. : Adoptium Release Page Option 3: Amazon Corretto 17

While it is possible to have multiple JDK versions installed on the same Windows machine, this practice can lead to confusion about which version is actually being used to run applications. Use and Windows javapath redirection carefully. Some Oracle installers copy java.exe , javaw.exe , javac.exe , and jshell.exe to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath\ , which then take precedence over other PATH entries. Understanding this mechanism helps avoid inadvertently using an unpatched JDK.
Certain legacy enterprise applications require specific, undocumented behaviors or older cryptographic protocols that have been disabled in newer minor updates of JDK 17. Developers occasionally patch the runtime binaries to re-enable these features locally to keep legacy software operational. The Extreme Risks of Third-Party "Patched" Binaries
