I am trying to reinstall the Arduino IDE on my computer (Win 10) which had earlier used the same Arduino IDE version 1.6.0 (portable). I am now facing the issue of opening the IDE even.

This problem started when i installed the version Arduino 1.8.1 (non-portable). For certain reasons i want both the versions on my computer now. I have uninstalled 1.8.1(non-portable) and have put the portable version 1.8.1 in appropriate file directories. 1.8.1 exe runs perfectly but 1.6.0 exe still doesnt. Are there any ways to do so?

    What is exactly problem? "doesn't work" ... isn't too informative – Jacek Cz Mar 18 '17 at 00:12
  • Arduino 1.6.0 launch throw a dialog box saying - "An Error occured while starting the application". Upon pressing the only button (OK) closes the dialog box. – Vikas Gupta Mar 18 '17 at 00:19
  • By portable do you mean you have created a portable folder in the Arduino IDE installation folder as described in https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/PortableIDE? You may be able do get more information on the cause of the error by running arduino_debug.exe (which is located in the Arduino IDE installation folder) from the command line. – per1234 Mar 18 '17 at 05:30
