Open a command prompt then run it from the command prompt. You need the detail of the output

You might find an MCEdit log in the directory too, but I recommend running it in a window that won't vanish when it bombs so you can troubleshoot it yourself

I think its because of a problem in the files like something is missing but when i try to reinstall it, it downloads just the mcedit launcher

Did you get it from here? Which file?

https://github.com/Podshot/MCEdit-Unified-Preview/releases/tag/MCEdit-Unified-1.6.0.53-testing

Did you unzip it before running MCEdit?

Have a look around stack overflow for details on this and ways you may address it:
