My minecraft wont download, how do I fix it?

hi,

its now march 24, and my minecraft bedrock for windows still wont update to 1.20.72.

the update wont show up, neither in the launcher or in microsoft store.

how to fix this?

I've been getting a pop-up when opening Minecraft which prompts me to download Microsoft Gaming Services which I will absolutely not download so anyway is there a get around with Microsoft Gaming Services? and if so how do I do it

Why wont you download the necessary update to play Minecraft?

Also, looking down the list of comments, you have two choices, install Microsoft Gaming Services and play Minecraft, or don't install it and don't play Minecraft.....................your choice.

Okay so i fixed the problem...still, the vanilla minecraft wont run from "true minecraft launcher", but it will thru 3rd party launcher (such as badlion). So yea...that was my fix...
