    Go to %appdata% click the .minecraft folder make a backup from your worlds & screenshot(If u want to)
    Then delete all the files in the .minecraft folder close it.
    Then start up minecraft.
    This should work

    Do you use forge ? If you do then it doesn't work with java 1.8 you need 1.7

    I'd suggest you open the %appdata% folder. (different on mac, you can look it up if you want to)
    If you don't have anything important like worlds, resource packs, profiles, then just delete the whole folder.
    Then you can try to open the minecratf launcher again and it should result on it working, if you do have mods, resource packs etc. then you can choose to save them and then put them back in after you're done.
    Hope it worked, I'm not that experienced with minecraft but this worked for me when I had the problem too. ;3

    Well if you have windows 10 that can be a bigger problem to fix there are not many java's that are compatible on windows 10
    Hmm ether way this is very hard to fix but i think that installing 64 bit java one of the newer versions should work but dont know i could not fix this problem the last time
    sorry i am not much use when some1 is using windows 10 or 8
    However if your using windows7 you just need to uninstall minecraft completely and delete the .minecraft file from Roaming
    and then get a pirated version of minecraft on 1.7.2 if you still have issues contact me
