Hi Till,

The easiest way to update Java is to download a new Fiji for your platform.
It ships with a new-enough Java for HTTPS.

If you wish to retain your existing Fiji installation, you can steal the
new Fiji's Java bundle:

- Navigate to your existing Fiji's platform-specific java folder (e.g. on
macOS, it's "Fiji.app/java/macosx").
- Remove any folders beneath it.
- Navigate to the platform-specific java folder of your newly unpacked Fiji.
- Move the folder (e.g. on macOS, it's "adoptopenjdk-8.jdk") into the old
Fiji's platform-specific java folder.

The existing Fiji should now use that new version of Java when launched.

HTH,
Curtis
