title: Error Launching IDEA: No JVM Installation Found
body: <p>I am trying to learn Python from an online course that I purchased.  The instructor uses IntelliJ IDEA as an IDE and since I am trying to follow along I am trying to use it as well.  When I download IntelliJ IDEA and then try to open it I receive the following error message: "No JVM Installation found.  Please install a 32 bit JDK.  If you already have a JDK installed, define a JAVA_Home variable in COmputer>System Properties>System Settings>Environmental Variables"</p>
  
  <p>I tried googling the issue and found my way to the Oracle website where they offered JDK downloads.  However there was no 32bit windows version available.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>What is a JDK?</li>
  <li>Why do I need a JDK for Python development?</li>
  <li>How can I download a 32 bit version of JDK?</li>
  <li>What is an easy to learn IDE for Python?  I've tried Visual Studio Code and PyCharm and have had issues with the set up of both and have not found many helpful articles/videos.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
