Eclipse won't launch.

I have no idea what's wrong. I ran the script and when i tried to launch eclipse.exe i get this message: http://gyazo.com/43278d0f79de5afe6bba945c210b694e

I checked the file location and javaw.exe is there.

eclipse is very buggy IDE. I use Spring Tool Suite which is Eclipse with added features and I run into issues all the time. A good habit to get into is to clean your project by going to PROJECT > CLEAN.

If you are using servers, clean your servers and refresh your repo within eclipse. Its annoying but it gets rid of a lot of annoying problems.
