Arduino IDE 1.6.4 doesn't work [SOLVED]

Whenever I try to launch the code editor, it shows the loading screen, gets to the point where it says "Starting..." but freezes, and then crashes. It was working just fine earlier today, but now it's broken. It doesn't even show up in the task manager (I'm using windows 7). I can still make edits with wordpad, but I can't verify, compile or upload. Any help?

Did you re-boot the computer?

What did you do in between when it was working earlier and now?

I rebooted the computer, that didn't work.
Then I realized I still have the installer, deleted the IDE, and re-installed it. That did the trick.

And now i'm trying to figure out whether a number is one, two, or three digits long...
I keep getting errors like:
request for member 'length' in 'thisChar', which is of non-class type 'int'

That's just a code error. Make a topic in programming questions for that and post you're code (including code tags) :wink:

What he ^ said.

And I'm glad you got it working easily.
