When starting a new project I get the message unsupported JDK. Using Gradle 7.1. I want to update that default Gradle to 7.3-rc-1.

However, I just can't seem to find where to do this outside of a specific project. I am not sure where IntelliJ obtains it's Gradle version, and it has auto-updated in the past.

Sure I could update it afterwards, but as IntelliJ seems to break on trying to create folders and doesn't go back to do it once Gradle is updated. It would save a lot of headache for IntelliJ and myself to update or force it to use the version I want before the project creation.

IntelliJ bundles version of Gradle much like it bundles a version of the JDK. In order to upgrade the bundled version of Gradle, you must update Intellij. However, there is no guarantee that an updated version of IntelliJ will come with an updated version of Gradle.
