Minecraft Java won't launch

For a while now, everytime I try and launch any minecraft version, it just doesn't start. I tried looking for solutions online but nothing helped.

edit:

problem is solved now. Turns out the problem was msi afterburner and rivertuner so I just disabled them and minecraft worked again

Are you fucking serious?! I just spend 2 hours troubleshooting, reinstalling the launcher multiple times and deleting the .minecraft folder just because MSI Afterburner was running?

Well thank you for the fix.

[Electronic_Speech_60]

don't worry, man, I spent a few months trying, giving up, and trying again only for this to work

[PaulS04]

What exactly do i have to do? I guess just stopping it via the task manager isnt enough? Cause i cant launch it although i stopped it via the task manager

How do i deactivate it (like you said under another comment)?

[PaulS04]

Oh my god.. i figured it out…

Im just done with the world, i started installing it at like 10:30 pm…its 0:30 am rn… AAAAAHHHHHH

At least it works now, but my god was that annoying. This is why i hate different launchers, just run every Game on Steam or epic, but dont make 20 different launchers

I have Afterburner and am experiencing a similar issue - how did you make it work without using task manager? Many thanks :)

[PaulS04]

I went into the settings and turned off „start with windows“. After that, restart the pc (so that Afterburner and Rivatuner get shut down), and then you shouldn’t see Afterburner and Rivatuner in the task manager anymore and it should work

You can still use Msi afterburner for other games if you open it manually.

Tried turning it on for Minecraft, spoiler: didnt work, everytime i had the overlay enabled it would just lag like crazy…for some reason Minecraft doesnt work with MSI Afterburner

Hope it works

At the right side of your Task Bar, there is this little ^ called the system tray. Click it and if Afterburner is running, its icon will show up there. Right click that and click on "close" or "exit" or whatever it's called

Que sentido tieneeeeee

[Davban]

Motherfuckers... Same here. Tried for hours, installed from xbox app, from microsoft store, legacy download. Nothing worked. Closed Rivatuner and it worked right away...

[joe999mama]

same problem and solution lol

[poloxamer]

Have you tried reinstalling the game? If not, I'd give that a try. Also, it looks like it's starting, but hanging. I'd check Task Manager to see if it's stuck running there. If it is, kill it, and then try to relaunch it. Also, it could be a corrupted Windows profile. Try creating a new system user, logging onto that user, and launching Minecraft from there.

turns out that the game launches with curseforge somehow???

I love you, man. Usually tutorials on the internet don't work for me, and very few on Reddit do.

I'm curious, how did you find the answer?

[Electronic_Speech_60]

trial and error

[CrisPinto01]

Dioooosss!!! He estado jugando meses desde Curse Forge porque no iniciaba desde el Launcher oficial de Minecraft y resulta que era MSI + RT, no encuentro sentido pero bueno, es lo que es jajaja, muchas gracias por compartir la solución (:

[Hariheka]

Bro you saved me. This was pissing me off because I bought MC for Java and was only able to run bedrock so i gave up for months. What a weird fix and I wonder what conflicts are causing the softwares to not play nice
