Please give more information:

  1. What package of netbeans have you loaded?
  2. Are you using a clean installation or have you imported settings from other installations?
  3. Did you add any modules / plugins?
  4. Have you made any changes?

Please have a look into your logfiles. You can find it in <NB user dir>/var/log/messages.log.

On windows 7+ it's usually here:

C:\Users\<YOUR NAME>\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\<NETBEANS VERSION>\var\log\messages.log

A first thing you can try: Rename (so you can restore it again) your NetBeans user dir and start again. This will create a new directory with default settings. If it doesn't fail your problem is likely based on your settings.

rename user directory means?C:\Users\<YOUR NAME>\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\<NETBEANS VERSION>\var\log\messages.log <YOUR NAME > in this case?
Rename this: C:/.../AppData/Roaming/NetBeans/<Your netbeans version>. So for 7.2 it's C:/.../AppData/Roaming/NetBeans/7.0 i think. In this folder your settings are stored. So if you rename it you'll get a clean setup (but you can rename it back; that's why it's better not to delete it).
