I think I found the source of this issue, After a bit more testing I realized this issue wasn't exclusive to this project, but rather I was unable to run anything without getting this error.

My primary java compiler is located in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2\bin

However I had recently created a new folder to store different versions of java compilers on my D: drive in hopes of being able to have multiple JDKs on my system without getting notification messages telling me to delete previous versions. I then changed my java compiler in my settings.json file to include:

"java.configuration.runtimes": [
        {
            "name":"JavaSE-10",
            "path": "D:\\Programming\\JavaVersions\\jdk-10.0.2\\bin",
            "default":  true
        },

despite still having C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2\bin on my path.

In the end I changed the "path" back to C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk-10.0.2\\bin and this error no longer appears. If this is still an issue that needs be resolved please let me know if you need the verbose logs.

You need set java home without bin suffix (e.g. "D:\Programming\JavaVersions\jdk-10.0.2") in the "path".

Thank you, this completely fixed my issue.
