But, I have the EXACT same problem... so i'm not alone!!! 😃
I have a similar problem, I have windows 7 and the same error message pops up for me in the console, BUT minecraft NEVER opens up, not even for a second.
The same thing happens with me, except I have Windows 7.
But thank you for that link, but it appears to be broken.
I disagree this is a bug with the new Minecraft Launcher, that many people are experiencing.
I have the same problem, wtf MOJANG i want to play minecraft 1.6.1 it just came out today!!!! GIVE ME A BREAK!
Except i did have minecraft before this new update.
