      I have fixed it now, see bottom of description.

      1.5.2 Worked perfectly fine. I've only tried updating to 1.6.2 today and that has crashed my launcher. It says:

      java.lang.NullPointerException

      And I'm not a Java person so I don't have a clue what that means... In-fact, I'm barely a computer person.

      Have tried:
      -Running as administrator
      -Deleting all files from the '.minecraft' folder and running the Minecraft launcher again
      -Changing the game directory using 'Edit Profile'

      I've fixed it!
      I restarted my computer, deleted everything from the '.minecraft' folder and opened the launcher, logged in and it opened the game perfectly fine!
