Hi there,
I'm a brand new user and having a lot of trouble. I have the pc version of the game and am running Windows 7 64bit.
All was well and the game was fine until I tried to find and copy the world my son created so he could play on my laptop. The users folder was not showing the AppData folder so I tried to unhide...this caused a huge problem where everything...my desktop files, my documents and my pictures files became hidden...how? no clue...anyhow, as a result my minecraft is not working and comes up with an error message that reads as follows:
Bootstrap (v5) Current time is Mar 11, 2014 9:20:58 PM System.getProperty('os.name') == 'Windows 7' System.getProperty('os.version') == '6.1' System.getProperty('os.arch') == 'amd64' System.getProperty('java.version') == '1.7.0_45' System.getProperty('java.vendor') == 'Oracle Corporation' System.getProperty('sun.arch.data.model') == '64'

Please fix the error and restart.
I then found a thread on here where someone had the same issue and said to download 'HiJackThis' which I did and it eventually gave me a text file found at this url:
