Hello recently when playing Minecraft I noticed an app called "Open JDK platform binary" running and using lots of RAM and CPU power. I am unable to find it in cmd when I type java -version and cannot find it in settings or control panels so I seemingly have no way to uninstall it but I just want it off my computer,
Thanks

Hi James,
I'm Rodrigo and I will help you.
This Open JDK platform binary is basically the platform that Minecraft runs on, it is consuming lots of RAM and CPU power because Minecraft is consuming it. If you uninstall it will not be able to play Minecraft.
