You don’t set the java version. You are seeking the
$PATH(bash) and the%PATH%(Windows/DOS/cmd.exe) environment variables. When you run the commandjava -version, the shell searches the directories on the$PATHto locate thejavaprogram and run it with the given arguments. If you get different results in different shells then that means you have different PATHs such that a different installation of Java is found.
