I've just started coding/testing non-modular JavaFX projects using the IDE tools on Windows on Eclipse (it's mandatory to use Eclipse that way for a class) and I'm facing an error to start a simple app. I keep getting the following:

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer

java.lang.module.FindException: Unable to derive module descriptor for C:\Users\emans\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\IE\F3CZ7Z3D\javafx-swt.jar

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: javafx.swt.1: Invalid module name: '1' is not a Java identifier

I already used a suitable JDK, installed the latest version of e(fx)lipse, and included the proper JARs. But nothing is working, I'd appreciate any help if possible!

I included a screenshot of the problem as well.
