I have windows 10 OS, I just downloaded JDK 9, and Netbeans 8.2 version with All features. When I want to create (Java) project, it just can't do it. Doesn't give me an error or something, just this blank screen.

enter image description here

What could be problem here, so I can't create any project ?

EDIT: The solution is to install JDK 8, as JDK 9 and beyond are currently not supported.

If however, you already have installed JDK 8, then kindly follow the steps outlined below.

The reason is that there is a conflict with the base JDK that NetBeans starts with. You have to set it to a lower version.

  1. Go to the folder "C:\Program Files\NetBeans 8.2\etc", or wherever NetBeans is installed.
  2. Open the netbeans.conf file.
  3. Locate netbeans_jdkhome and replace the JDK path there with "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_152", or wherever your JDK is installed. Be sure to use the right path, or you will run into problems. Here, JDK 1.8.0_152 is installed.
  4. Save the file, and restart NetBeans. It worked for me, should do for you too.
