I am trying to use my computer with windows 10 installed so that I can build and compile jar files but test them remotely on my raspberry pi4 down the hall. This method worked fine when I was using a linux (Ubuntu) laptop, but unfortunately...the laptop broke, and now I'm installing linux on another computer...and in the meantime, I would like to continue working. I have Apache Netbeans 12.3, java version 16, and here are the specifics of what is happening: I can go into manage platforms, I can set up a remote platform, and can test it...and the connection tests out successfully. However, when I go to File->ProjectProperties and select Categories->Run, in the drop-down box where you can usually select the platforms you have established....there are no options--it just offers Project Platform. Maybe it's a windows thing? A priviledge thing? I can't find the answer...thanks in advance.
This is the screen where the problem exists. The arrow points towards the drop down menu that won't drop down and acts like no other Platform has been defined.
By downgrading the JDK to JDK11, I was able to select newly existing Remote Platforms in Netbeans in the File->ProjectProperties window, under the Run category, as detailed in the picture above.
