If you've installed netbeans from package, please remove that. Ubuntu
has an old probably broken package for NetBeans 10 in its repositories.
Snap is an universal Linux packaging format backed by Canonical. We
release up-to date binaries there.

Or if you type netbeans in the software center app in Ubuntu it will
bring you up two versions: "Apache NetBeans" and "NetBeans". Uninstall
the "NetBeans" and install the "Apache NetBeans" one.
Also You have the following possibilities when you install from Snap:
1. latest/stable: 11.1 at the moment. It will be updated to 11.2 as it
would come out.
2. latest/edge: 11.1 at the moment but will be updated with 11.2 beta
soon and will follow the release cycle.
3. 11.0/stable: 11.0 our current LTS release.
There is another option:
https://snapcraft.io/netbeans-dev
These are weekly updated builds from the master branch.
The netbeans and netbeans-dev Snap packages can be installed at the same
time, so you can have a stable and a regularly updated experimental
version of the IDE.

I installed NetBeans IDE 10.0, in which Netbeans is at 8.3 Patch 2,
What exactly does that mean? Try 11.1. NetBeans 10.0 is no longer supported.
There is a Snap available for Ubuntu as well as the installers and zip.
Somebody connected with Apache wrote the code that generated the About box in
which 10.0 and 8.3 Patch 2 appear, so your guess is probably better than mine.
Anyhow, what is a "Snap" and why did I get version 10.0 of the IDE just a few
days ago when I tried to install the current stable release?
