I'm working on some of my projects using Java 11, but some libraries are not available in this version. So I want to move to Java 8. However, I'm not able to remove Java 11 version and install Java 8. In my usr/lib/jvm directory both versions of Java are shown (see screenshot).

How can I change the Java version from 11 to 8?

It looks like it can answer your problem. You can have multiple Java versions running on your system and change between them with:

sudo update-alternatives --config java
