I did something stupid...
« on: August 12, 2012, 05:09:27 am »
Hello~

Alright, so I did something stupid and deleted my .minecraft folder. I was trying to install a mod for my singleplayer, but it decided it didn't want to work. So, following a fellow player's instructions, I deleted my .minecraft folder. Everything would have been great, however now, whenever I try to open Minecraft, it asks me if I'd like to update. I click yes, and it gets stuck at varying percentages of loading. And when I deny the update, it gets stuck with the loading bar almost all the way loaded.

Can anyone help me?!

You may need to delete your entire .bin folder in order to create another minecraft.jar file.

But he deleted his .minecraft, so it also deleted his .bin folder. Just delete the shortcut (if you have one) and just re-download it from minecraft.net.

Thank you Cazual, Victor and bantam~ I deleted Minecraft then redownloaded it, and now it's working again. I'll keep this fix in mind. Thank you again for helping me fix it.
