Many times developers end up installing multiple versions of Java JDK/JRE versions on their macOS, as Java comes in different implementations - Oracle, Amazon Corretto OpenJDK, Zulu, etc are installed at different locations.
In order to know that versions of Java have been installed on a Mac computer running macOS is to run the command: /usr/libexec/java_home -V
Steps to check installed Java versions:
- Open Terminal
- Go to /usr/libexec, by doing cd /usr/libexec
- Type: ./java_home -V
code2care@mac libexec % ./java_home -V
