Windows 10 Exit 1 error [message #1795839]

I am recieving a exit 1 error when I try to launch Eclipse, it says I do not have a JDK/JRE in a location that does not even exist on my computer. I do have a JDK and JRE downloaded however I cannot seem to point Eclipse to them, I've tried a -vm and I get the same error, nothing seems to be working that I could find. Running all of this on Windows 10.

What are the contents of your eclipse.ini file? Have you modified it in any way?

That's my current eclipse.ini and I added the -vm <location of my jdk> part

You can't have anything that's not a valid argument for the JVM after the -vmargs
line, including the -vm switch and location. Move them above the -vmargs line. -1 is
most often reported on invalid arguments.

The way you have "openFile-vm" on a single line still looks a little weird. The companion jar message
can be related to file permissions--you need both read and execute permissions on any .dll files.
