      We are aware of the issue and are looking into it!
      Update: We've made some tweaks so it should now work, but we will keep monitoring to be safe. Please comment in this report if you are still experiencing similar issues!

      When I try to open it, my mouse pointer does the loading sign (as it should be) and then just stops. I'm not experiencing any problems with my computer after I try to launch, it just continues as if nothing happened. I've checked the task manager to see if java started, but i see nothing. I updated java today, but i updated it after i first found out that minecraft wouldn't launch. I have also been looking for answers everywhere, but I'm seeing the same answers and none of them works. i played minecraft yesterday and it worked perfectly. My internet connection is also perfectly fine (using a internet cable).

       

      Tried asking in the Community Support Discord Server, and it seems everyone from Norway are having this issue

      It also seems that all of us who have this problem, had our Launcher.exe last modified on 18th of April 10:12AM and now it won't update further.

       

      Here's a list of everything I've tried:

      -Updated Java (jre 8.281)

      -Updated my video card driver (Nvidia GeForce)

      -Reinstalled my video card driver (Nvidia GeForce)

      -Reinstalled Java

      -Reinstalled Minecraft (new setup file)

      -Changed compatibility mode

      -Launched as admin

      -Launched as admin with admin launch as default

      -Launched from the main file (not the shortcut)

      -Deleted everything i've had on minecraft (including FTB, Curseforge and Forge)

      -Downgraded Java to 8.271 (launched as admin)

      -Allowed the app to launch on windows

      -It works on my laptop (Launcher.exe last modified  on the 20th, cant replicate it though)

      -Asked on the official minecraft discord server, no answers
      -Only Norwegians are getting the problem (for the time being)

      • Third party launchers like MultiMC and Badlion lets you work around it and launch the game
