I am getting this error when starting the game, it won't even go to the main menu

I also have no mods installed.

Exception in thread "main" joptsimple.MultipleArgumentsForOptionException: Found multiple arguments for option ['assetsDir'], but you asked for only one

I understand what a crash report is, that is why I was confused when this popped up and i wasnt able to fix it myself. The problem is it doesnt even show the client or the mojang screen either like it usually would when it crashes.

Nevermind i managed to fix it. I configured the .json file in the versions folder in my minecraft install directory. Thanks for the help anyway!
