I am trying to launch Eclipse Nano in Windows 7, but getting the error:

Version 1.7 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. version 1.8 greater is required for Eclipse Nano in Windows

I already have Java 8 installed on the system

Simply download 1.8 JDK from Java SE Development Kit 8 Downloads install it, then copy the jre folder & paste it in:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\EclipseNeon\"

Then rename the folder to "jre", start the eclipse again it should work.
