Minecraft Forums

I'm at my wits end.

Ever since the 1.6 update, Minecraft has refused to open. I've tried everything I can possibly imagine and I'm coming to the forum so that maybe I can get help with this. Here's what I've done so far:

-deleted all old versions of java and installed up to date versions of both 32 bit and 64 bit (I run a 64 bit computer)

-deleted minecraft COMPLETELY from my computer, redownloaded, and ran it again

-changed javaw to both java and javaws (none of them worked)

-created a .bat file that contains the following:
@echo off
Title Minecraft Launcher
set APPDATA=%CD%\
start %CD%\minecraft.exe

-put minecraft all in its own folder in the C: drive

So, with all that said, here is the error message I get in the log every time I try and launch minecraft:

Occasionally, it will say Java SE Binary Platform has stopped working, but that doesn't happen every time.

Also it should be noted that I can play 1.5.2 and lower just fine, this problem arose after the 1.6 update and when I merged my Mojang account with my Minecraft account.

I reeeeeeeeeeaaalllllyyyy would like to play minecraft again, so I dearly hope someone can help me.

There's nothing wrong with that dev console log. We'll need the crash dump (hs_errXXXXX.log file) to see what exactly happens in minecraft.

Is your internet connection working properly?

Do you have D3DGear (video recorder) installed on your computer? See here.

Thank you so much! I can't believe after all this time trying to figure out what was wrong, I never found that. Again, THANK YOU!
