minecraft launcher wont open at all

ThijsHartjes · Nov 27, 2021

as the subject states the minecraft launcher from the windows store wont open at all. ive tried to sign out of the store and xbox app and sign back in, this did not help. i've also tried to use the WSRESET command, this too did not help. ive made sure im on the newest version of windows 11 and ive made sure that my timezone, date & time are all correct. ive made sure the launcher is installed on my C:/ drive.

im starting to get kinda annoyed that the launcher still does not work after it having been out for so long.

so if anyone has got a fix for this issue i would love to hear it because so far i havent found one

thanks in advance

Thijs

Hi there ThijsHartjes welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Try the following!

1)Re-install Minecraft

2) Download alternative version instead of the classic one:

Download the "Minecraft.exe" instead of Minecraft.msi on here:

It's also titled Minecraft (Alternative)

this doesn't seem to work but when I try to open Minecraft launcher it will run as a background process for a second then it will disappear.
