Webstorm 2018.1 AngularJS disabled, then Webstorm won't load project
Prompted to upgrade webstorm to 2018.1 which I did. After restarting got dialog with:
Plugin 'AngularJS' failed to initialize and will be disabled. Please restart WebStorm.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/intellij/lang/typescript/tsconfig/TypeScriptConfigFileType
...
After restarting AngularJS is disabled and none of my projects load, the navigator window just says "loading..."

Please delete `~\.WebStorm2018.1` and try starting with default plugins and configuration - does it help? If not, you might need to re-install WebStorm from scratch by downloading the full installation package from https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/download/#section=windows
I had just finished debugging and fixing the problem myself, the IDE's are vital to my work and I could not wait.
This line in the logs:
Showed that the problem was most likely located in JavaScriptLanguage.jar looking at that jar it showed a different modification date, by several months than the other jar files in plugins\JavaScriptLanguage\lib. I pulled JavaScriptLanguage.jar from the install exe with 7zip and replaced that one file and that seems to have fixed it.
