When I try to start the IDE, nothing appears, but I see four background processes running in Task Manager.
I can open it as an Administrator, but then I cannot access my files.
Opening a Powershell window from the installation directory and entering
& ".\Arduino IDE"
produces no output.

Hi @jbull9. Were you previously using a different version of Arduino IDE successfully? If so, which IDE version were you using before?
Hi @ptillisch - Yes, I was previously using 2.0.0-beta.12.
Update: I tried reinstalling 2.0.0-beta.12 (I still had the installer file) and was seeing the same problem. I then uninstalled all versions of the Arduino IDE I had and noticed that some were in C:\Program Files and some were in C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE. I then reinstalled 2.0.4 ("for all users"; i.e., to C:\Program Files), and now it works as expected.
I will consider this solved. The root cause is left as an exercise for the reader. 
I'm glad it is working now. Thank you for taking the time to post an update!
Regards,
Per
I am having the same problem, same results in task manager, under windows 11..... tried everything suggested so far... still a no-start.... older versions had been ok.... surely others are having this same problem, my system is very bare as far as software goes... but i stopped everything else non-essential anyway and still no start. help! I was just about to go back to ide 2.0 from vs code and platform IO because that software is too buggy and does not work and always fighting it.. not worth it, now i'm worried the good ole' Arduino IDE doesn't work! My old standby.
Hi @johnjrichardson. I'm going to ask you to post some additional information that might help us to identify the problem.
Please do this:
C:\Program Files\Arduino IDE or C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE).& ".\Arduino IDE"
<CODE/> icon on the post composer toolbar.```) to your reply to make sure the error messages are correctly formatted.
Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.

I hope I did that right (above)... I see a lot of references to VS code... don't know what one has to do with the other... interesting
Thanks! I see here Arduino IDE is failing to open the sketch you had open during the previous IDE session:
There is a known lack of support for opening sketches from UNC paths like this one (it is possible to open them via some of the IDE's user interfaces, but not others):
I haven't seen these paths cause Arduino IDE to fail to start before, so I'm not certain the problem you are having has the same root cause, but it does seem that the unusual sketch path is the cause of your problem. The workaround will be to avoid having Arduino IDE attempt to open this sketch.
That can be done by forcing Arduino IDE to open a sketch from a non-problematic path. I'll provide instructions:
C:\Program Files\Arduino IDE or C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE).& '.\Arduino IDE.exe' ".\resources\app\node_modules\arduino-ide-extension\Examples\01.Basics\BareMinimum\BareMinimum.ino"
After that, you should be able to start Arduino IDE normally. Please avoid opening sketches from network share paths with the UNC form like:
\\10.0.0.200\Genaroo\Development\Code Snippets\Volos Projects\touchT-display\touchMinimal\touchMinimal.ino
If you want to continue to open sketches from the network share, you can map it to a drive on your computer. Then make sure to open the sketches from the drive instead of from the network location:
