this is very likely caused by jar files you have in <jdk>\jre\lib\ext.
 Try to move them to another place.  NetBeans includes a few third
party jar libraries (see <ide>\lib\ext).  If conflicting jars are
present in <jdk>\jre\lib\ext then they are used by the JVM instead of
those in <ide>\lib\ext.  We are looking for ways to make jars in
latter place to have higher precedence.  This should be solved in the
next release.

For more infos see issue #11020. For now, you can delete the
conflicting jars from {jdkhome}/jre/lib/ext.
