Launcher Won't Open

[GiraffeRider]

Launcher Version: 1.0.3.2

Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit

Java Version: 7u9 64 bit

Antivirus Program: Microsoft Security Essentials

Description of Problem:

Whenever I try to open the .exe or the jar nothing happens. I open Task Manager and it shows Java Platform SE binary under processes. It's running on the javaw.exe and I tried running it with the java.exe but that didn't make a difference. Also tried running it from my USB with JavaPortableLauncher but the same thing happened. I gave java more RAM to run of off and less and still nothing. I've also completely removed Java and reinstalled it as well as downgrading but to no avail.

No logs, not at all

No logs, not at all

When you run the jar, what happens?

When you run the jar, what happens?

Same thing as when I run the .exe

Which is? Is there an error? Does it just not do anything?

No no error. Like I said in the first post the launcher doesn't appear on-screen but it is listed in the Processes section of Task Manager. The javaw.exe at least

[Jorcer]

Hmmm... odd. I have never seen anything like this. I will do some searching to see if I or anyone else can find similar problems/solutions.

Are you/can you run it from the command line?

Didn't think to try that. Didn't work though. I tried a batch file too and nothing.
