Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

What The Fudge!?!?!?

A new process starts (open the task manager) but I don't get any window. Reinstalling Scratch doesn't help.

HELP. ME. NOW. I'm really mad right now.

CRUD.
I can't get to the download page. Instead, I get stupid garbled text! GAHH!
Sorry for cheating the filter. I've replaced it. Also, it's too late to turn back now. I've already deleted the Scratch folder.

Nope.
Suddenly out of nowhere, this happened.
Okay fine, I confess, I accidentally did something.
Go out of fullscreen, click in the space, click previous project, click in the space, and then click quit.

I don't understand… where are you finding these buttons? But yes, there is something wrong with info.scratch.MIT.edu at the moment - they are attempting to fix it.

You deleted scratch from inside the image I think.

Oh! I see. While the Scratch Team generally doesn't support messing with images like this, I don't see why redownloading wouldn't help.

Re: Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

What about I give you my image and you rename your image and put this image in the scratch file?

I have a image file ready for download here http://www.mediafire.com/?168u93irpkx9ed4#1

I didn't delete Scratch within the .IMAGE.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start Scratch
- Shift-click the 'R' the logo
- Click "turn fillscreen off"
- Click in the white space
- Click on "Previous project"
- Hold down the mouse button on the teal space
- Roll over "Quit" and release the button

Re: Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

Yup. The "Previous Project" button means a Squeak project, not Scratch. There is no previous one in the Scratch .IMAGE, so you got a blank Squeak project.

Re: Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

I'm having an .IMAGE problem.
Squeak VM v4.1.1 has a splash screen. When opening the Scratch .IMAGE using the 4.1.1 VM, it hangs on the splash screen. I have to kill the process with the Task Manager.
I'm going to try what-the's .IMAGE now

Re: Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

I can't get what-the's .IMAGE to work in the regular Scratch VM, but it works in the 4.1.1 VM!
BUT NETWORKING ON SCRATCH DOESN'T EVEN WORK ON THE 4.1.1 VM!
EDIT: Now it's hanging on both VMs.

Re: Scratch won't start up. SUPER URGENT.

I've just temporarily fixed the problem by installing in a different directory.
