Original story (published on Novebmer 03, 2021) follows:



Minecraft isn't just a video game. It's a phenomenon that has been enjoyed by everyone. Server Stat It is one of the best-selling video games of all time with more than 140 million active users every month.



Mojang Studios regularly updates the game as it is an internet-only game. However, some of those cause serious issues at times.



Some players complained recently about animals, villagers and armor stands disappearing from their Xbox and Nintendo Switch.



According to recent reports (1.2,3,4,5.6,7.8,8), many Minecraft players are having problems with the new launcher. Some claim that the game doesn't launch and that there are several errors. Others report that the launcher doesn’t load for them.



Having said that, the game is unplayable for everyone affected by the new Minecraft launcher not working issue. We can only pray that Minecraft developers will investigate the matter and take responsibility.



Here's a list of common mistakes that Minecraft players make.



Whenever I try to start my minecraft launcher, I keep getting this error message: "Minecraft Launcher is currently not available in your account. Retry again after logging in to the Store. Here's the error number, in case it is needed: 0x803F8001. This is the only way I know of to fix it. It would be great to have some assistance. (Source)



Hello all! I just installed the new minecraft launcher through the xbox app on Windows 11. It seems like it resets every time I launch the new minecraft launcher. I have had to login again every time. My profiles don’t save (optifine, vivecraft, ect ) It just resets back to the 1.17.1. Anyone else experiencing this problem as well? (Source)



Hello! I tried to install the new launcher today but it wouldn't launch when I tried to launch. Nothing at all happened to indicate it was working. I tried reinstalling Minecraft and removing the old launcher. But it won't allow me to open it. It opens the old launcher, but it doesn't want to open. Any idea on what might be wrong? (Source)



This is not the only problem Minecraft players are having right now. Others have complained about having trouble installing the new launcher.



So, I open my launcher, and there's a red bar at the bottom announcing the "fancy" new launcher. I click it, and it takes me directly to the Microsoft store. I click Install. Then... nothing happens. There is no download window, progress bar, or anything in my downloads folder. What's the problem? (Source)



I can't install the new windows 10 Minecraft launcher, I can't install it from microsoft store for some reason and downloading the file doesn't work too (Source)



There is also the Optifine installation problem. Many are reporting that the Optifine version of the game is not installable for them with some reporting that it is causing their system to crash.



My computer keeps crashing every time I try and re-install optifine so that I can play minecraft with it on the new launcher (they unified bedrock and Java launchers). Any ideas? (Source)



I have changed to a new launcher but can't install forge nor optifine to it. Any suggestions? (Source)



It turns out that it is not the fault of Minecraft developers and that it is an issue with Optifine. The company has since then acknowledged the issue and said a fix will be coming soon.



Small Update to the Announcement: Currently, updating your Minecraft launcher causes OptiFine's installer to not work properly, it won't find the new launcher_profiles.json file. Reported here: https://github.com/sp614x/optifine/issues/6355. A fix will be announced when available. Server Stat Kai (Source)



The launcher is still experiencing issues and it is not yet ready for public release. If and when Mojang Studio acknowledged the issues with the new Minecraft launcher not working for many, we will update this space with more information.
