If so you should try the steps in this guide. I had the same issue and uninstalling all versions of Java and only installing the latest build of Java 7 fixed my issue.

Not sure if this is the same for windows but I occasionally get this on my linux OS. Make sure everything has permission to execute the file.

Would you open command prompt and type "java -version", then copy here what it prints.

I meant it for OP. It is relevant to know if the OS environment variables have correct java path set to 64-bit binaries. Doing java -version tells all that, if it fails to run at all, it would be no wonder launcher won't start.

This shows up in the FTB logs, which is why its always best to provide the pastebin from FTB :p But yeah, this could be the reason for the problem.

'java-version' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

If you didn't understand the original post i meant that no ftb launcher even opens up and the ftb console dosen't open eiter

There should be a space between "java" and "-version" as i typed in my posts, because it is a command parameter.

I understood perfectly, ftb launcher will not even open if you don't have java installed properly. It wouldn't even write a log for you to copy, because that too requires java.
(You still didn't try to look for the log to copy here anyway?)

There are some guides around the net to set the environment path
http://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml
And java may install itself 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
64-bit version is by default in
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin
and 32-bit is in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin
(Don't make the mistake to include x86 path)

You are using so called "Early access" version of Java, which is kind of a beta release. Things may work or not, but the launcher is built for latest stable Java that is update 45 (yours is 60). We still don't know if this is the cause, just finding out things that seem unusual.
