you can add more JDKs via tools -> java platform
in project properties window, you can select which JDK it should use to
build/run etc. If you don't change the JDK it will use the same JDK NB
is running on. And i think you figured already out how to change this
(via netbeans.conf)
no need to reinstall anything. (technically you don't even have to
install NB, just extract and run it)

I forgot to talk about the JDK! Thanks for that tip. When I first
installed NetBeans 12.6, I was using JDK14. I installed JDK17 after
installing 12.6 and changed the JDK home to 17. I just changed the
JDK home back to 14 and the exceptions go away (but I still can't find
my file type in "File -> New").
Do we need to re-install NetBeans to switch JDKs, so that
netbeans.conf is correct for the JDK?
Thanks,
