    JavaFX was moved to a separate module in Java 11 (and later). You can use jlink to create a JRE that includes the JavaFX modules, and then use that when you build your .exe. Also note JDK14 include the jpackage tool, which will do both steps (running jlink and creating the native package) in one call. Commented Nov 10, 2020 at 13:47

While JavaFX was moved out of the standard distribution of the JDK/JRE in Java 11, there are still several OpenJDK vendors that produce builds including the JavaFX modules. Try using a build from Azul or Bellsoft that is marked as "full" or "fx".

Otherwise the solution is to download the JavaFX SDK modules and create a JRE that includes the JavaFX modules with jlink. https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/#install-javafx
