my BitcoinCore wallet doesn't start

[sarjem03]

I've been less than a week getting some btc (actually just satoshis  ), but now whenever I try to open my wallet all I get is this message: http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w67/Jean_Michael_Sajona/btc%20e_zpsgx2dg3ew.png
How can I fix it?

It looks like your Bitcoin core is corrupted.
You can read the debug.log file or post it here for additional help.

I already looked  for the debug.log file in Bitcoin Core's installation folder but didn't find it, not even in windows browser... do I need to reinstall BTC Core? and if so, how can I recover my addresses (had 3 of them with some few satoshi)?

It's not in the installation folder. The debug.log is kept in your roaming app data.  Open up your windows folder explorer and type in %APPDATA%
Then look for the Bitcoin folder and you will find the debug.log in there.

nope, no BTC folder over there... http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w67/Jean_Michael_Sajona/gh_zpswkxwzjsj.png

If Bitcoin Core is installed correctly, there should be a folder in %appdata%. So I suppose you could try reinstalling everything.

Is there a wallet.dat or debug.log in the "bkqgkfoc" folder?

I kept using some faucets this week... I uninstalled BTC Core and Reinstalled it over and over, but always get the same message... Is there at least a pssibility to get my addresses back so i can use them with any other wallet?

Only if you have the wallet.dat.

If so you can

#1 use it on a friends machine (if possible) to export your private keys
#2 use pywallet to export the private keys yourself
#3 hire someone to do either #1 or #2

Option #3 comes with the risk that you are no longer the only person that knows the private key(s) for the addresses. It would thus be smart to hire someone to make a last final transaction that moves all your funds to an address from your new wallet.

what is your os sir?
are you using 32bit or 64bit?
do you have antivirus? what is your antivirus?
can you send here your bitcoin core logs?
if you dont see the logs.
backup all bitcoin core files from programfiles and appdata
before we start...
