      Bought Minecraft off the official site, downloaded Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft store with difficulty (wasn't downloading and installing [stuck on pending]). After finally getting the Minecraft Launcher, I install Minecraft Java and get an error similar to the first image below (unable to locate the java runtime). In an attempt to fix this, I close the minecraft launcher and delete the .minecraft folder from appdata. Now I get the internal error message when I press play (second image). 

       

      Prior to deleting the .minecraft folder, I could see the installations and patch notes now nothing comes up on both tabs (last image).

       

      Any advice/help on this would be appreciated.
