I've been having this issue ever since I upgraded my Windows 7 computer to Windows 10(forever). Minecraft just doesn't seem to want to start up. I've reinstalled the game, tried the new launcher, old launcher, and the installer, but nothing worked.

The first crash log I got was in 2015:

// I let you down. Sorry :(

It hasn't worked once ever since that crash log in 2015. I was hoping somebody could help me figure out why.
