I updated the JRE on my windows server to jre-11.0.15.10-hotspot and it update the PATH to the directory. Restarted the server and it still shows lucee using the previous version on the lucee overview page. Is there more to it than just setting the path to the JRE in environmental vars?
I think I'm starting to understand. Does Lucee only use the JRE that's in lucee\jre? You can't tell Lucee where the JRE is only what JRE is in lucee\jre?

The default installation uses its own JRE, so it won't mess with any JRE installed to the OS. Lucees JRE is shipped in Lucee installation directory.

@Andreas Thanks for chiming in. So if I want to use a newer version of the JRE is there somewhere I can tell lucee where to find it? Do you think I just have to over write the JRE in \lucee\jre? I remember when I used to use ACF you could set it in admin but I know lucee doesn't have that.
Even though it's for Linux these instructions look like I do just replace it https://docs.lucee.org/guides/installing-lucee/installation-linux/upgrade-JRE.html
It's a production server so I'm just getting any input before I do it so I don't screw something up

there's a tomcat service manager in the lucee folder where you can configure which jvm to use for the service
