Desktop failing to launch (windows) 1.4.8

Since updating to 1.4.8, neo4j will not launch. I've tried restarting my computer, and uninstalling and reinstalling neo4j.

It seems like something is happening though. When I open my taskmanager, neo4j appears to be running

Here are the logs from the latest startup attempt:
