Answer 1

My Visual Studio Code is set to use the 32 bit version of JDK

A default java.exe is installed in your %SYSTEMROOT%\System32

Check java version from command line:

java -version

You might need to add your version to PATH:

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_111\bin

And set your system JAVA_HOME:

setx -m JAVA_HOME "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_111"

Restart cmd and try:

echo %JAVA_HOME%

Restart Visual Studio Code and be happy.

Use set instead of setx for local user.
