To work around this issue, you can install versions you want to play manually. It happens because the legacy launcher does seem to have problems with downloading and installing the newer version files. This is an error that occurs only when launching 1.14.4, 19w36a, or versions that have been released after 19w36a.

It is recommended to use the updated launcher (legacy or not) instead of using the workaround below. You find the workaround for this issue that could be used before it was fixed below. If you're not able to launch the 2.x.x launcher, please create a new ticket about that. You can find the download links for it here. If you're able to launch the updated launcher (2.x.x), it is recommended to update to this one instead. If your launcher does not automatically update, you can download the updated version (1.6.93) here. It even crashed and Windows had to close it.A new version of the legacy launcher has been released that solves this issue. I've also RESET the profile BACK to specifying the actual path to the exe because for some stupid reason the new crap launcher changed the settings on ALL my profiles. Path: C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\javaw.exe The game launches just like ALL previous versions of the launcherĮrror details: The system cannot find the file specified The new launcher (2.0.74) cannot launch minecraft because it cannot find the executable. To fix this issue manually, you need to delete the "runtime" folder in the following folder: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minecraft\".ģ. Make sure the Java Executable setting on any launcher profiles you have set up in the Launch Options menu is set to off A bug that causes issues with detection of the Java runtime. Please see this comment for details on how to fix this temporarily.Ģ. A general problem with symlinks and junctions. There are essentially three seperate issues combined in this ticket number:ġ.
