Not able to start IntelliJ version 2017.1


Not able to start IntelliJ version 2017.1



I am trying to start the IntelliJ but it failed and showing following error message.

I have already defined JAVA_HOME in system variable. I also tried to update JAVA_HOME in user environment variable. I am expecting the user defined will overwritten system one. However, IntelliJ still looking for system defined variable, and tried create JVM from there.

This issue happened when my admin right has been invoked. It used to work before.



Is there any way I could run the IntelliJ without the admin right.





It seems that you need 32-bit JDK. Is your JDK 64-bit?

looks like its a windows access issue(as mentioned in above answer) than the JDK/JRE path issue.

I have reinstalled Intellij with user permission and it works. The reason with the issue was that I had installed Intellij with admin privilege, it stopped working after my local admin have been revoked.
