      Clones a part of https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-23115?focusedId=1240817&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-1240817.

      The Bug:

      The link that was used for older versions of Java to prompt for the player security feature warning (https://help.minecraft.net/hc/articles/360052763631?ref=launcher) still doesn't work. This is caused by an extra /hc after the locale specifier within the link.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      • Open the launcher and go to the Minecraft: Java Edition tab.
      • Make a fresh installation of a very old version of the game, such as c0.30_01c.
      • Press "Play". The warning message will prompt you.
      • Click on the "Read more about player safety features" link.

      →  The redirect to https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/hc/articles/360052763631?ref=launcher ends on a https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/notfound page.

      Observed Behavior:

      The clicked link returns an invalid page, leading to a 404 error.

      Expected Behavior:

      The clicked link returns a valid page (https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/360052763631?ref=launcher).
