neilcsmith-net opened a new issue, #133:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans-nbpackage/issues/133

   For legacy reasons, the Windows installer with bundled JDK sets the 
`--jdkhome` location via the shortcut.  This does not work when used with `Open 
With...` on a file, and is susceptible to other issues.  Using the launcher 
directly will either use a system installed JDK or fail to launch at all.
   
   With changes in the launcher in https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/8408 
it should now be possible to specify a relative link in the `netbeans.conf` 
file using `BASEDIR`.  This will require testing with IDE and platform.  
Thought should be given whether to keep the shortcut support for packaging 
older versions, and also whether to filter out the 32-bit launcher from the 
installed files.
