      About last week, the launcher when try to run the game in any state (offline or online), it loads, but doesn't open. If I try to run it again, it shows the error "The game is already running in this game directory. Starting it again may cause malfunction or corrupt your saved worlds. To solve this, create a new installation in a separate game directory." Any try afterwards the launcher refuses to load it again. The game doesn't show in Task Manager. I've updated to the newest launcher and updated the snapshot. I've tried playing different versions (to 1.16.5 to 21w16a and making my own directory of 21w14a, along with making a duplicate directory of 21w16a) I'm not too comfortable with uninstalling & reinstalling, but if I have to, I will. Thanks!

      Also, the launcher would only launch the game (when it did) when the play button read "Play Demo" which would happen if my computer was offline for a day or so. (I should probably make a second complaint and document this...)
