Answer 1

1. Go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Gradle
2. Choose JDK folder for Gradle JDK field
3. Apply changes

NB: If you haven't Java environment on your PC, go to https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html and download Java jdk for your platform.

NB2: It's JDK for your Gradle, not for your source code compiler (!)

This is the Gradle JDK, not the JDK used by the IDE – Paapanen

@Deyoung Kisel In my Arctic Fox I don't have this option, any solution? #69704789 – Mail

@Mail It seems that Gradle wasn't configured for your project. See Project structure – Deyoung

It's always amazing how difficult to find this in the menu, I always need to rely on Stackoverflow to locate it. – Teheran

For latest Android Studio (eg: Android Studio Flamingo | 2022.2.1), the Settings option can be found by going to Android Studio > Settings – Hurlburt

Android Studio Bumblebee | 2021.1.1 Patch 1 has a fix for "Env variables not sourced when launched from Mac OS X to Monterey Dock" - See https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/2022/02/android-studio-bumblebee-202111-patch-1.html
