Error message window content

I ran Fiji on a MS Win. 7 64-bit laptop tonight (06 Sept. 2012).
I accepted the updates but the error message window appeared and, when I restarted it, it could not open anymore, even re-installing Fiji from scratch. When I run it, the Fiji window does not actually open up, it is available only in the tray.

I attach to this thread the error message window content shown after the update.

There was a bug in the updater which -- unfortunately -- prevents certain versions of the updater from updating the updater correctly. However, I tested installing Fiji from scratch and that one is still able to update correctly.

One of the following two methods should get you back to a working system, though:

1) delete Fiji.app/jars/ij-ui-swing-updater-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and restart Fiji

2) download http://jenkins.imagej.net/job/Stable-Fiji/ws/Fiji.app/plugins/Fiji_Updater.jar and drag & drop it onto the Fiji main window (or if that window does not even appear, overwrite Fiji.app/plugins/Fiji_Updater.jar) and try again.

I am assuming that one of the suggested actions worked.
