There isn't much information in that error message, but my guess is that you need to install OpenJDK 8, which you can get here, and then you'll need to edit gradle.properties and add the line org.gradle.java.home=C:\\Program Files\\Eclipse Adoptium\\jdk-8.0.332.9-hotspot to it. (This path may not be 100% correct.)
