Question

NullPointerException Installing ColdFusion Builder

I receive a NullPointerException repeatably when trying to install CF Builder.

I looked at http://forums.adobe.com/message/2952413, but it does not resolve my issue.  The link to the Java bug doesn't help me. I can't edit the source...

I'm sure I used custom icons at some point and I know I moved them, so some are broken.  However, this shouldn't stop the installation of CF Builder.

Are they any ideas on how to complete my install?

I found the information below useful and it fixed the issue. 

I still don't think the installer should've crashed because of this issue.

I was also facing the same problem and after spending time. I finally came to know that this is occuring due to the windows could not locate some system icons such as MyComputer, MyDocuments etc. So to resolve follow the steps: 
1. Right click on desktop.
2. Click on Properties from the pop-up menu.
3. Under the desktop tab select customize desktop button List of desktop items will be displayed.
4. Set default icons for all system icons in the list.
