I downloaded JDK 8 and then unzipped using these instructions (java - How can I get the latest JRE / JDK as a zip file rather than EXE or MSI installer? - Stack Overflow)
I downloaded SQL Developer v 4.1 and unzipped it and then clicked on sqldeveloper.exe, and gave the JDK path.
Window opened up. I tried adding a DB connection by clicking on the green Plus + symbol. The window freezes after about 15 seconds, and then there is no response. I then have to kill using the Task manager.
If i dont click on the + Connection, then the window works ok - as in I can click on the menus, check for updates etc. The moment I click on + Connection, the window freezes. Attempted multiple times with the same behaviour.
Has anyone else experienced the same ? Any fixes ?
