Fixed it! My profile was referencing a customly selected java version to make it use 64bit java and I'd forgotten to change it when I updated java so it was referencing a version of java that wasn't there!
My minecraft won't start at all. I think it might be a java issue since it's only had issues since I updated my java, but since I haven't updated my 64 bit java yet only my 32 bit and it won't work on either I'm not sure. :/ It's just crashing immediately after pressing the play button, not even running long enough for anything to register in the game log. But here's the launcher log:

[23:28:27 INFO]: Deleting C:\Users\Tamsin\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\versions\1.8.1\1.8.1-natives-33986859296013
It does with same thing with 1.8 and also with modded 1.7.2 although the error there is different, however 1.7.5 does run.
It was working fine a few days ago so not sure what is going on? I've completely deleted the 1.8.1 folder in the versions folder and reinstalled but it's not fixed it. :/ also used the new installer thing to do a new launcher install, which seemed to give me the exact same launcher anyway and threw exactly the same error.
If anyone could help me fix this I'd be greatful, normally I can figure out how to fix things myself but this one has me completely stumped. :/
The issue I'd had with the unmodded versions was that I had told that profile to use a specific version of java, which no longer existed on my PC. As such it was trying to use a file that wasn't there. 1.7.5 randomly worked because I'd changed profile onto one where I wasn't manually controlling the java version, so minecraft had swapped to using the correct one. Minecraft is more intelligent than me lol!
The issue with my modded minecraft is something more, I'm pretty sure It's an incompatibility between new java and old forge so probably fixable by downgrading java or upgrading forge? *shrugs* I'll make a topic in the modded support place for that though.

My minecraft won't start at all. I think it might be a java issue since it's only had issues since I updated my java, but since I haven't updated my 64 bit java yet only my 32 bit and it won't work on either I'm not sure. :/ It's just crashing immediately after pressing the play button, not even running long enough for anything to register in the game log. But here's the launcher log:

[23:28:27 INFO]: Deleting C:\Users\Tamsin\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\versions\1.8.1\1.8.1-natives-33986859296013
It was working fine a few days ago so not sure what is going on? I've completely deleted the 1.8.1 folder in the versions folder and reinstalled but it's not fixed it. :/ also used the new installer thing to do a new launcher install, which seemed to give me the exact same launcher anyway and threw exactly the same error.
If anyone could help me fix this I'd be greatful, normally I can figure out how to fix things myself but this one has me completely stumped. :/
The issue I'd had with the unmodded versions was that I had told that profile to use a specific version of java, which no longer existed on my PC. As such it was trying to use a file that wasn't there. 1.7.5 randomly worked because I'd changed profile onto one where I wasn't manually controlling the java version, so minecraft had swapped to using the correct one. Minecraft is more intelligent than me lol!
The issue with my modded minecraft is something more, I'm pretty sure It's an incompatibility between new java and old forge so probably fixable by downgrading java or upgrading forge? *shrugs* I'll make a topic in the modded support place for that though.
