Installing Elasticsearch: error missing JVM "server" in ... jvm.dll

After loading elasticsearch and unzip it, following the instructions in this link:

Install Elastic Search on Windows

I get the following error:

Error: missing 'server' JVM at 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\bin\server\jvm.dll'.
Please install or use the JRE or JDK that contains these missing components.

Note. I also had to install JDK8 as suggested in this resolution

Do I have to change something in the .config file? Maybe this line?

 # force the server VM (remove on 32-bit client JVMs)
 -server

Set the environment variable JAVA_HOMEto indicate the path to your JDK 8 installation .

This can be done on the command line, as shown in the following example:

SET JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_131"
SET PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

, JDK PATH :

javac -version
