Intellij startup error: IDE has not been initialized yet

I updated to Intellij Community Edition 2020.1.2 and after installtion, it is not starting. I ran the idea.bat file from command prompt and get this error:

C:\Program Files\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2020.1.2\bin>idea.bat
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
IDE has not been initialized yet

My java home is set to Jdk 10

Can someone please help??

Thanks!

Sometimes it takes a really long time to start up without any indication that it is running. You'll get that error message printed when you try to start the application a second time, while the first instance is still starting. Check the Task Manager and you should see that IntelliJ is running.

Try checking you have no other instance of IDEA running.
