However, I tried restarting my computer and reinstalling the JDK and already set my environment variables

These are my environment variables: This is in the user variables

and I did the same to system variables:

I also added it to my path:

However when I run:

python -m pip install pyjnius

I get this error: errormessage

I also tried verifying it using this script:

import os
jdk = os.environ.get('JDK_HOME')
print(jdk)
jre = os.environ.get('JRE_HOME')
print(jre)

and it does not return as None. Any help on fixing this? And by the way, I am running this on a venv.

EDIT: This is my full environment variables:

You have set the env and path variables in the wrong place. look at this [Installation for Windows](https://pyjnius.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#installation-for-windows) – Rcordoval Sep 08 '18 at 05:34
I already followed the instructions there but the jre folder is no longer under the jdk folder as of the current version so I specified the folder where it is installed – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 05:37
But i'll try resetting my variables – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 05:37
Did you install Cython before? – Rcordoval Sep 08 '18 at 05:42
yes I have it installed – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 05:45
Tried resetting my variables but it still throws me the same error – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 05:45
Edit your question and paste full env/user variables and path please. – Rcordoval Sep 08 '18 at 05:48
I made the edit to the answer – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 06:23
Try to follow this: [install](https://github.com/kivy/pyjnius/issues/57#issuecomment-227886988) – Rcordoval Sep 08 '18 at 06:47
I followed it but it still returns the same error – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 07:22
observing from the setup.py, it seems that the name of the variable should be 'jre' instead of 'JRE_HOME'? – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 07:23
Should I just use the general gps.py facade? because it seems that I can just extract the info that I need from there – Jezreel Martin Sep 08 '18 at 08:12
