Start with Platform.getSettingsFolder() at Platform.java:132, then trace the calls through Base.java:2231 and Base.java:2264 into Language.java and Toolkit.java. Reproduce the startup failure and identify why the platform instance is null; done means the settings folder is obtained without the reported exception and the relevant startup path is covered.
