Jaziel,
There is not a lot of information to go on there. Perhaps there is a problem
with path names with non-lower-ascii characters like here:

When you run into problems like this on windows, it is very helpful if you
open the command window, cd to the location where the executable lives (which
you can find by looking at the properties of the desktop shortcut), and launch
the runner by hand. If there are any error messages written when the problem
happens, that'll help diagnose the problem.
