      I download the newest launcher from https://minecraft.net/download, place it in a new folder. I have recently deleted everything that might be related to Minecraft (the ".minecraft" folder and modpacks like FTB). I double-click the launcher and then I am confronted with the log below. I am unable to open it even if I run it as administrator. Please help! Thank you!
