ColdFusion is installed on the C: drive, each version has its own folder, currently "ColdFusion2021".

In the administrator, under Server Settings and "Java and JVM" is where the most important tweaks are done. This sets the version of Java (JRE) which can be the version that ships with CF, or could be set to a separately installed version. For CF2021, we're using the built in JRE for now, but there are older alternate stand alone installs under Program Files and Java that was in use for CF2016.
In the administrator, under Server Settings and "Scheduled Tasks" is another key location for settings. Likewise under "Data & Services" and "Datasources" for all database connections.
Java Keystore
In order for ColdFusion to be able to communicate securely behind the scenes with secure sites (VoterVoice, 365, etc.) the CFHTTP tag will require the SSL (.CER file) to be installed in the Java Keystore. This is a cumbersome command line process, unfortunately, but full details are here:

Anytime a "Connection Error" comes up with a 3rd party connector, this is likely the cause.
