Uninstall/Reinstall or just reinstall will probably be the fastest and easiest solution, if something went corrupt it might even be the only one.
Or you could switch to another editor.

Unless there's a very important reason that you can't, it'll probably be less effort to just uninstall and reinstall from scratch.

I got this working. I deleted the Welcome and VersionControl files (Addins causing startup error) from the Addin folder and it started working fine. I don't use VersionControl with Mono and Welcome stores your recently opened files (I think). Both features which aren't important to me for what I'm doing.
Just to be sure though I reinstalled Unity and it's still working fine now.
My guess is maybe some hidden files were left behind when I first uninstalled Unity and they were conflicting with the new version, but I could off.,I got this working.
