      Hello, I've been experiencing an annoying issue with my Minecraft that's making me unable to do anything In-game.

       

      Whenever I run Minecraft from the Vanilla launcher (one you download from Microsoft store), INSIDE the launcher it says I'm logged in but when I run the game; My skins don't load, my username isn't right, and I'm unable to join absolutely any server. I get the error attached bellow in this email. I believe that the game is for some reason completely unable to authenticate my account to verify my ownership of the game.

       

      and btw i get the error regardless of the game version

       

      What I did to troubleshoot:

       

      1. I found a fix online where I have to go to

      "C-drive/Windows/system32/drivers/etc"

      open a file called "Hosts" in there and remove any text that has Mojang on it, so I ran it as administrator, did the thing but the problem still occurs.

       

      1. I tried to completely DELETE absolutely anything related to Minecraft from my computer, all the files, all the accounts, everything. And reinstall from scratch but still problem still occurs.

       

      1. Tried logging out of my Microsoft account from Xbox, the launcher, & Microsoft store but it didn't fix anything.

       

      1. Tried logging in from a different computer to test if the problem was my account not my computer but it actually worked first try on another computer, it logged in just fine so there is something wrong with my Minecraft installed in my computer.

       

      I've been getting this issue for over 3 months now on my PC, I searched for help online, tried out different minecraft communities no one was able to help.

       

      also, no i do not use any third-party launchers like lunar or badlion, and also when i asked for help from minecraft support they kept telling me to delete/uninstall MCLeaks but i dont even know what that is, never had it installed... yes i still like searched my PC for any MCLeaks and nothing is there.
