You may need to put some quotes around it if there are spaces in the path.

You have a few weird errors in the log i wouldn't really expect and it looks like the launched client cant get its own resource from within the jar itself which is strange. Do you have any AV or anything that might meddle with the contents of the `C:\Users\Electronica Care\.ignition` directory? You could try to remove the following folders and files and retry: `C:\Users\Electronica Care\.ignition\cache` `C:\Users\Electronica Care\.ignition\clientlauncher-data\launchclient.jar` `C:\Users\Electronica Care\.ignition\clientlauncher-data\launchclient.jar.chk` `C:\Users\Electronica Care\.ignition\clientlauncher-data\images` ---
