Quick note: You have to restart your console. Otherwise it will not find your freshly installed java. So just close it, type "cmd", press enter and retype "echo %JAVA_HOME%". Now you will find your java. Same with version command :)

I get the error:
java --version
Unrecognized option: --version
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

Any ideas guys? :(

Apparently, you have to use the command java -version instead of java --version on windows.
