techniclauncher.exe doesn't do anything

[thebjmax1]

Hi I'm a new forum user but I need help I've been playing the technic launcher on my PC for about 2 years now and it all of a sudden doesn't work anymore. Here's the info you asked for.

Type of bug: Launcher bug

Reproduction rate: 10/10 times

Steps to reproduce: double click techniclauncher.exe

Expected results: launcher should open and display the modpacks screen

Observed results: nothing happens

Logs: there is not even a .technic folder anymore I deleted it to try reinstalling it but nothing has worked and it does not create a .technic folder

Please help I want to play tekkit with my friends

How much time did you gave it?

Sometimes to new logo for tekkit loads up a bit longer, you should leave it for a moment like that.

If the above does not solve your problem you can try launching it with the "as administrator" option.

Report any findings

@jj bridges don't piggyback on someone else's report. Make your own

 Well I left it for 10 minutes and nothing happened the logo never even showed up and I then tried as admin but the same thing happened after I left that for 10 minutes as well

 I think I may have found a log that was hiding here it is it is a nativelog.txt

I looked through the log and it seems it is a vanilla launcher log not technic

I may be having a driver issue with my E:\  Where I had it previously installed but I deleted it and reinstalled it it should have installed back to my C:\  correct?

[thebjmax1]

Also in case you need it my OS and Java Version

OS: Windows 8.1 Enterprise

Java SE Runtime Version 8u60

The launcher will keep all the files at %appdata% so the system directory for the logged in user. usually that's C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming in windows.

Download a new launcher version from here: http://technicpack.net/download

Run it and tell me what do you see.

[thebjmax1]

Well I didn't get anything in %appdata% and nothing happens when I ran it but I put the program in the Compatibility troubleshooter it says it is not compatible with Windows so maybe that will help.

Can you screenshot the actual error? Upload it to imgur.com or something similar.

[thebjmax1]

well I tried to upload to igmur but it wont work there is no error message when trying to load up the launcher but the compatibility troubleshooter just says incompatible program all I get when double clicking or running as admin for the launcher is a loading wheel then nothing not even an error message nothing happens

here is the compatibility troubleshooter though

[thebjmax1]

Good news it fixed itself magically

After the 3rd time I reinstalled Java it started working again for no reason thanks anyway for the help

sorry to bother you
