Previous posts have suggested that I remove the files under

Check menue NetBeans > About menu, it shows path to cache dir. The paths you posted look like for Linux, on Mac it is (at least with recent versions of NetBeans) something like

/Users/{username}/Library/Application Support/Caches/NetBeans/8.0/

You can find the path by opening the About Netbeans dialog in Netbeans.

Go to Help -> About and you will see

Cache directory: Path\to\Directory

go to specified directory and delete everything.

According to NetBeans FAQ on UserDir and CacheDir:

Mac OS X /Users//Library/Caches/NetBeans/8.0/

Windows: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\8.0\

Unix-like systems: /home//.cache/netbeans/8.0

Go to Netbeans > About and at the bottom you can find the Cache directory. Copy that directory, command + shift + g in the finder, paste the directory and BOOM you're there.
