I’m also having the same issue.

If it’s the same bug as in the original post, as quoted above, it likely means your java sdk is unsupported by the current Gradle version.

In the case of the original post the major version refers to Java sdk version 22.

After some research I’ve figured out that if I delete the registry.bin file located at C:\Users\Username\.gradle\daemon\8.11.1, and run the Gradle build with OpenJDK 25, evrything works fine.
