Installing packages on windows minion with salt state files-CodePudding

Im trying to install the java jdk package on a windows salt-minion through a salt state file. On linux servers ive got it working fine with

packages_to_install:
  pkg.installed:
    - pkgs:
      - java-11-openjdk.x86_64

For the windows servers however this config doesnt work. Trying to search the web for what else is needed has proved fruitless so far but im guessing i need to tell the state file where to download the java package from however i cant find what the setting should be.

For windows installation you have two main options:

Configure and use winrepo. Note that the default JDK installer is Oracle's, which you may not be licensed to use. Create your own software definition file to override.

Install JDK:
  pkg.installed:
    - name: jdk11

Download and run an installer.

Download JDK installer:
  file.managed:
    - name: C:\Installers\java-11-openjdk.msi
    - source: https://github.com/adoptium/temurin11-binaries/releases/download/jdk-11.0.17+8/OpenJDK11U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_11.0.17_8.msi
