If you run the program arduino_debug.exe that's located in the Arduino IDE installation folder from the command line you will get some information on the cause of the failure to start.
This could be caused by many things but the most common when using Arduino IDE 1.8.4 is described here:
opened 04:43PM - 03 Sep 17 UTC
closed 07:16PM - 03 Sep 17 UTC
Component: IDE user interface
I accidentally reduced the arduino font size. And it has stopped starting. I am … not able to open Arduino IDE. I am getting following error when i try to use arduino_debug.exe.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Font size must be > 0

Please help me in getting through this problem.
