Game crashes when using latest Java Runtime (1.8.0_291)

Running Minecraft 1.17 with Java 1.8.0_291, I get this error message:

Launching the game failed!

Your Java Runtime is incompatible. Please edit your installation to use the bundled Java Runtime.

Java 16 is now required. Link <--
or use the bundled runtime provided by the launcher

Maybe this should be made more prominent, then?

I have the same issue after the last update of the launcher, but with Minecraft 1.16 and Java 16 (AdoptOpenJDK jre-16.0.1.9 hotspot). I am starting to get annoyed by the constant problems with the launch of the game... 😡
