Not able to install elasticsearch in Windows 7

Hi team,
Can you help me to resolve this error.
C:\Users\foxin\Downloads\elasticsearch-6.4.2\elasticsearch-6.4.2\bin>elasticsearch
could not find java; set JAVA_HOME or ensure java is in PATH

I have successfully set the path in environment variables as follows

You need to point it to the JDK directory, not it's bin directory.

[balumurari1]

once you set your java path,
open command prompt, and type
java -version
if it is set properly, it will show the java with version number

Next Step,

1. Open command prompt
2. Navigate to the elasticsearch bin folder ex: D:\ELK\Elasticserach6.4\bin\
3. Run the command ".\elasticsearch" or ".\elasticsearch.bat"
4. Observe the output
5. Open browser and type "localhost:9200"
