This is likely an error due to having an old JDK.

  1. Install the most recent JDK (Java SE Development Kit) for your system. If you are using 64-bit Windows I recommend getting the x64 JDK.
  2. Open advanced system settings
  3. Open the Environment Variables window
  4. Update the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the new JDK. e.g. "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_111"
  5. Open a new command window and try again.
