"Not supported for this JVM" when using visualvm under Windows (Linux VM works)

I try to watch an application running in a Linux Tomcat under OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 25.292-b10, mixed mode). I use a jmx connection to watch that application from a remote host.

In a Linux VM (Debian 10.9), I used visualvm 1.4.2 which installed openjdk11, connected nicely and displayed results. However, screen space and performance are limited, also the version is rather old, so I tried visualvm 2.0.7 under Windows. I tried several JDKs, among them the exact same AdoptOpenjdk the Tomcat application is running on and the 11 which worked under Linux, but I always get "Not supported for this JVM" and no results. I can't change the OpenJDK the target application is running under (and it shouldn't be necessary, since it's proven to be usable, right?) but I can change a lot in the Windows environment. But no jdk I tried (1.8, 11, 16, Open, Adopt...) seems to do the job. I didn't find any hints that you can't use Windows visualvm.exe to debug Linux applications, but could that be a problem? Anything else I could try?

Start by reproducing the failure with VisualVM 2.0.7 and visualvm.exe on Windows, connecting through JMX to the Linux Tomcat application running OpenJDK. Compare that setup with VisualVM 1.4.2 on Debian and the listed JDK versions. Done means identifying the compatibility boundary or configuration cause and confirming a supported way to display the remote JVM results.
