I use https://www.appveyor.com/docs/windows-images-software/ page as a reference.
I see that Visual Studio 2019 should have JDK 15 (x64), JDK 16 (x64). I set the environment variable JAVA_HOME using

environment:
  matrix:
    - JAVA_HOME: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk16

But I get the error message:

ERROR: JAVA_HOME exists but does not point to a valid Java home
       folder. No "\bin\java.exe" file can be found there.

e.g.: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Antonytm/sitecore-solrproxy/builds/...

I try to get more information about existence of C:\Program Files\Java\jdk15 at all, I added the next commands to build configuration:

  - cd "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk15"
  - dir
  - cd bin
  - dir

I get next error message:

cd "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk15"
The system cannot find the path specified.
Command exited with code 1

I tried the same on 13 and it works: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk13
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Antonytm/sitecore-solrproxy/builds/...

Question: Does JDK 16 & 15 is present in the Visual Studio 2019 environment ?
And if yes, where is it located?
(because it looks like current documentation page has wrong information: https://www.appveyor.com/docs/windows-images-software/ )

   Add image: Visual Studio 2019 into your appveyor.yml. Currently, your account is building on Visual Studio 2015 image by default.

   Ok, will do.

   I used the settings page:
   https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Antonytm/sitecore-solrproxy/settings/environment
   Settings > Environment > Build worker image

   where I already have "Visual Studio 2019".

   2 places for this configuration confuse, especially if one of them doesn't
   work.

   Thanks,
   Anton
