Minecraft Launcher crashes after downloading runtime at the Setting up runtime status bar window.

It doesn't say anything, it just stops launching.
When the launcher is clicked a "Downloading runtime" window appears, it downloads 120.21MB file, then a second window appears for "Setting up runtime", this one doesn't do anything for about 5 seconds then it disappears along with the launcher icon, as if I had never hit it.
I have a screen movie capture of the whole process but its 68MB and can't attach it here.
Is there anywhere else I could send it for your review?

Ticket MCL-5569 references to a Win 7 operating system, I am using Mac OS X. Nvidia is not supported by Apple.

I correct myself, NVIDIA is supported by Apple. I fixed issue by doing the following:
1. Deleted Minecraft from OS X.
2. Upgraded OS X to OS Sierra (a few little hiccups while installing but nothing too painful).
3. Download/Installed Minecraft.
All working properly as of this comment.
I will have to assume the problem is an OS X issue with the new Minecraft Launcher, but guess I'll never know.
Please tell us what it shows you.
