Does it update thru windows update, or do you have to manually go to the website again to get a new version?
Or how does updating it work?

/edit Same question for intelij

No for both.
You update by downloading the newer version.

Thanks, so uninstall then reinstall, or just install over it?

I would say along side. Just in case.

what doyou mean along side?

You can have multiple JDKs installed at once. You just need to set your java_home and path variable. That allows your programs to determine what version of java to use.
