Problem with the minecraft launcher.

Hi mineblokkies，

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

There are many reasons why you can't log in to Minecraft Launcher, but all of them are due to Microsoft Store and related services. I will provide several methods to try to solve this problem, please refer to the following steps for operation:

• Clear the cache on Microsoft Store.
  

1. Press the Windows logo key + R, type wsreset.exe, and select OK.
   
2. After a few seconds a blank command prompt window will appear, which will disappear after about ten seconds and the Microsoft Store will open automatically.This means the cache was cleared successfully.
   

• Make sure you're using the Microsoft Store Install Service.
  

1. Services.msc can be found by pressing Windows Key + S and typing services.msc.
   
2. Locate and double-click the Microsoft Store Install Service; if the status is Running, right-click it and select Restart.
   
3. Change it to Automatic if it's disabled, then click Start and OK.
   

• Reinstall the Microsoft Store app
  

1. Press Windows key + X
   
   Click and Run Windows PowerShell(run as Administrator)Copy and paste the command below then hit Enter:
   
   

• Reinstall the Minecraft Launcher
  

1. Click Start >Settings >Apps，find "Minecraft Launcher" in all apps.
   
2. Click on the "Minecraft Launcher" Advanced options >Uninstall the application.
   
3. Open the Microsoft Store, search for "Minecraft Launcher", download and install it again, and log in to your account to see if it works.
   

There are many steps, please try them all. Your patience and cooperation are highly appreciated.

Missing File "GameLaunchHelper.exe" after downloading the Minecraft Launcher

I was trying to play Minecraft yesterday and when I go to launch/uninstall the launcher it comes up with an error saying "Windows cannot find 'C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\Microsoft.4297127d64eC6_1.3.7.0_x64__8weK...\GameLaunchHelper.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. " I have tried reinstalling the launcher and I have also tried to install it through the Microsoft Store and through the Minecraft Launcher that I downloaded from the official website.
