Bedrock or Java? If Java there are better 3rd party launchers that work like PrismLauncher
I recently tried to open an old save with the Vanilla Minecraft Launcher, took forever. I immediately transferred the save over to Prism.
What I recall Windows forces you to have microsoft store installed. Try to update windows and if that doesn't work, try repairing windows
Back then when I wanted to try it out it was real pain getting it working. There's also a unofficial bedrock launcher which I ended up using https://bedrocklauncher.github.io/
But if you want bedrock on linux, emulating MCPE, virtual machine or wine are your options.
It's happened here before, there's a fix that uses powershell that I think worked for us, reinitializing the windows games library essentially.
Everything's fine for me on win 10 with bedrock and Java
Just ran into this , it’s like Microsoft doesn’t even want our money.
Modrinth is great
