Ok I have verified Java is installed:

C:\Users\Jeff>java -version
java version "1.8.0_251"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_251-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.251-b08, mixed mode, sharing)

Eclipse installer still says it is not there. Any Ideas??

This is a little difficult to confirm, but I think it would identify itself as a 64-bit JRE if it were one, and current releases require (and the installer looks for) a 64-bit JRE.

Yes, my 32 bit VM prints things:

$/c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Java/jdk1.8.0_101/bin/java.exe -version
java version "1.8.0_101"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_101-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.101-b13, mixed mode)

But a 64 bit one prints this:

$java -version
java version "1.8.0_121"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_121-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.121-b13, mixed mode)

Thanks everyone. The issue WAS ther flipping java installed the 32 even though I selected 64. I diff ther manual install and everything works. I even made the test watch face. I have a lot to learn and relearn. It's amazing how getting older and not doing something for just a few years can make you totally forget even ther easiest things. But on the bright side, I can still remember calculus.
