      So I've been having this issue just now, where I launch Minecraft, the game window doesn't show up whatsoever. The launcher window opens just fine, no issues there, but when I click play to run the game, the game doesn't show up at all, and when I look into the Task manager, the java process is running in the background apps as if it's loading the game. I wait a few minutes for the game to run, it doesn't open whatsoever, and the runtime process is still visible in the background apps as if it was running it.

      I tried deleting the profiles, I tried reinstalling the game, I even reinstalled Java to try solve it, and it still doesn't open the game, only the runtime process runs and even then, it just stays idly in the process until I end the task, and have the launcher pop back up. 

      What do I do here? How can I fix it? Is this a java thing or a Minecraft thing? Or is it something else?
