I am running: windows8.1, Netbeans8.2, jdk1.8.0_191 and Eclipse oomph I also thought about trying other IDEs but figured that I might get the same problem. Please help, this is so frustrating, and I am even considering dual booting now that both IDEs aren't working. (all other environment variables and other system information are in the Eclipse log). But I don't know how to use it to find the problem. I followed some posts and used -trace to get the output log.
Now, when I clique on its icon or start it from command prompt nothing happens. I didn't change anything related to java on my computer, all I did in the past two weeks is to install some software that I needed. Now all the sudden it won't start (without showing any errors). Netbeans was running fine just last week (and has been since I installed it about two years ago).
