I can't start Mathematica 10.2 in Windows 8.1 64 bit, I'm getting this error even after I uninstalled and re-installed.
I emailed support a couple fo days ago, but I'm yet to hear from them and I need to get to work ASAP, any ideas?

$\begingroup$ Can't you revert your whole system to a point in time where everything worked via a backup? $\endgroup$– SaschaJan 4, 2016 at 1:34

$\begingroup$ No. I don't have a backup. $\endgroup$– andandandandJan 4, 2016 at 1:42

$\begingroup$ This same error was reported in question 94541, subsequently deleted. It also was reported on a Russian Mathematica site, where it was put on hold. It seems likely that Wolfram Inc is your only resource. $\endgroup$– bbgodfreyJan 4, 2016 at 7:42

$\begingroup$ There is a refresh your PC without affecting your files function in windows. That might help. For the future you should seriously consider having some kind of backup, especially for your important, work-related files! $\endgroup$– SaschaJan 4, 2016 at 9:00

This error message has occurred before with a corrupted init.m file.
Check your init.m files if you have edited them. Otherwise, the article @JHM linked to you should fix the problem.
