Crash on launch

[kerbythepurplecow]

Hey guys, I've been trying to run the latest beta of forge (1.5.34), but it's crashing on launch. I recall having this issue with 1.5.31, but not anything that may have led to the issue. I've updated java to make sure that wasn't the cause and now have v8u31. No clue, what might be wrong. Error report is below.

Try this :

Depending on where your OS save your Forge user data go to :

C:\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\Local\Forge\preferences\
or
C:\Users\<yourusername>\Application Data\Roaming\Forge\preferences\
or
C:\Documents and Settings\<yourusername>\Application Data\Forge\preferences\

Then delete the files named :
quest.preferences
deck.preferences
forge.preferences
item_view.preferences

then go to

C:\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\Local\Forge\
or
C:\Users\<yourusername>\Application Data\Roaming\Forge\
or
C:\Documents and Settings\<yourusername>\Application Data\Forge\

And delete the folder named "quest"

Launch Forge

Is it working for you after ?
