NetBeans 21 supports projects which use JDKs in the rage 8-21 with
limited support for early access dev builds 22, 23 etc.
javac itself dropped support for the 1.7 target in Java 20.
So your best bet would be to try NetBeans 17 which used nb-javac based
on JDK 19. Although I can't promise that this will work since I don't
think anyone tested anything with Java 7 for quite some time.

I have just installed Nebeans 22 which is using JDK 21.
I need to maintain a desktop application which is on JDK 1.7 but when
I attempt to add this JDK and even JDK 1.8, Netbeans gives the
following error ...
"Cannot detect and install the selected platform. The Java or javac
may not be executable."
I have read in other forums that this was a bug way back in version 10
or 11.
I would have imagined that this would have been solved by version 22.
Does anyone know some fix or workaround for this?
