Whenever i try to launch minecraft with the launcher I get this error message: Unable to create a directory. nuk,json.
With the web https://minecraftirc.net/minecrafthelp/landing/ I tried solving the problem. Cleaning my laptot from malvare and repairing the launcher using reintalation, reinstaling java. Even tried turning off Firewall and antivirus . I dont have Bytefence. The full description is

This issue was not caused by Bytefence. As you can see I did not have it intalled, along with other apps that would cause a similar trouble. With community support we tried all sorts of different things. In the end one solution resolved this issue. Goiing into %appdata%, locating .minecraft and deleting all files in there helped. The download then afterwards resolved normaly and game runs fine now. Please add it as a working solution.
