Multibit will not start

[cheerios]

I am fairly new to Bitcoin and Multibit. Lately I am having trouble getting Multibit to open on my desktop. I have not had to use my wallet since October, but when I tried to day Multibit will not start from the .exe. I have stopped all malware and anti-virus to see if it would help. I have tried to reinstall the program but it will not start also. There are no error messages or codes that come up.

Any idea of what I can do?

You can see this symptom if there is a copy of MultiBit running in the background (i.e. a previous instance hasn't closed down properly).
A complete reboot of your machine - not a sleep - would kill the other process if this is the problem.

open your task manager and see if it is running. go to processes tab and check for the program. also it might take some time to open the program so give it some time. if it didn't work try reinstalling AFTER backing up your wallet
