I am trying to launch my jar file for my spring boot application but I keep getting the error that it has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 61.0), this version of Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0. I feel like I have tried everything I believe I am using the latest versions of Java. Is there anything I can do? If there is anything to download could you please link it?

Update: I solved the issue by removing the javapath path variable and restarting.

I believe it was the following I removed: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
