When I launch techniclauncher(newest one), and launch the .exe, it simply shows the "Technic launcher" load image, but freezes and never opens. This worked fine yesterday, now even reboots wont affect it.

[TheRamiCookie]

I've had the same problem, but I managed to solve it by deleting the following file:

.technic/lastlogin

On windows, this is located in %APPDATA%/.technic/lastlogin

I can restart the launcher and it works. The only down-side is I have to re-enter my login details.

If I choose to "remember my password" then I have to do this EVERY time I want to start the launcher. If I don't select "remember" then it works every time.
