Hello! Ummmmmm. Thanks for the details.

The web installer you’re using tries to download files during installation, and if any connection fails, it gets stuck.

1. Go to the official Java Downloads page.
2. Download “Windows Offline (64-bit)” .exe — about ~80 MB.
3. Right-click → Run as administrator.

If this works, you’re done. If it still fails, go to the next steps.

Some security software blocks Java’s downloader connections without telling you. Try this:

• Turn off Windows Defender Firewall temporarily: Settings → Update & Security → Windows Security → Firewall & network protection → Domain/Private/Public → Off If you have a third-party antivirus, disable its web protection too. Then run the installer again.

If it installs, turn your firewall/antivirus back ON immediately after.

Best regards,
