Windows 10: Minecraft Launcher Closes Upon Clicking "Microsoft Log-in" Option

As the title suggests, my Minecraft Launcher just closes when I click the Microsoft Log-in option and I have no idea how to fix it. Tried running it through the Xbox app as suggested by other people to no avail. The bigger problem is that there's no error message to help me identify what the problem even is as soon as I click it it just closes and nothing happens

Microsoft launcher

Hi AustinNeely\,

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Community. May we ask if what troubleshooting you have tried? We highly suggest you to try the steps below.

• Restart your phone.
• If the issue persists after restarting your phone, it only means that the default launcher is needed for any other launchers to work properly. Re-installing the default launcher should resolve the issue.

Once your Android phone is back on its default settings, re-install the Microsoft Launcher and your other apps.

Note: You can easily restore your Microsoft Launcher settings if you have performed a back up. To back up your Microsoft Launcher settings, please do the following:

1. Launch the Microsoft Launcher settings. (Tap and hold your phone's home screen and tap on the
   Launcher Settings.)
2. Tap Back up & Restore.
3. Tap Back up Microsoft Launcher option.
4. Confirm that the Back up to cloud storage option is selected.
5. Tap the Back up button.
6. Check the settings that you want to back up.
7. Tap the Back up now button.

You may restore your Microsoft Launcher back up after re-installing it.

If you can no longer re-install your phone's default launcher, please get in touch with its manufacturer for assistance on how you can reset it to its factory settings.

Kind Regards,

Rom G.

 

Minecraft Native launcher

Thank you Catherine, but i play just updated team fortress 2 from Steam and it updated perfectly. I tried your setting steps but unfortunately i can't modify Minecraft for a reason and if i try to right click nothing happens. When i clicked on Modern Combat
5 it showed me the link to advanced options but not for minecraft.

My father purchased Minecraft for me from Minecraft. net. I have tried a million times but it is hard to acces minecraft forums in China.

However when i opened the Minecraft native log it said my windows version was 8 ,however my windows is 10.

Thx for cooperating. I even tried "check for updates in the store" but that wasn't any help.

Hi,

Server interruption during the update process is the primary reason as to why you're encountering this issue. Let's isolate your concern by answering the following questions:

• Have you tried updating other games or apps to check if the same instance occurs?
• Are you referring to
  Mojang.com or
  Minecraft.net as the official website?

In the meantime, we recommend downloading the updates from the Windows Store. See

Check for updates for apps and games from Windows Store. Check if the updates for Minecraft Native Launcher are available.

Another solution you may perform is to reset the game from Settings. Here are the steps:

• Click Start and click Settings.
• Select System.
• Select Apps & features.
• Find the game and click Advanced options.
• Click Reset.
• Restart your device so that the changes can take effect.
