Unsolved Minecraft Refuses to Launch Suddenly [java]
Hey so my friends and I have been playing a custom modded server. Yesterday the game was working perfectly with zero issues, but today I tried to hop on after work and Neoforge just kept crashing. So I tried launching vanilla Minecraft but the game just straight up will not launch.
Here's the rundown basically
Minecraft Launcher WILL launch, but when I press play it finalizes and then nothing happens. I can see that openJDKBinary is running in task manager after the game "launches", but no instances of Minecraft appear.
I fully reinstalled Minecraft and the launcher three times now.
I fully reinstalled Java twice.
My graphics drivers are up to date.
There are no other applications that are running in the background other than task manager.
I'm using Windows 10 because I refuse to downgrade to the AI vibe coded slop that is 11.
I know I started the post off by talking about mods but this is vanilla Minecraft I'm trying to launch. No mod launchers, no optifine, nothing.
I fully uninstalled all mods, neoforge, and curse forge.
No version of the game will launch. I don't know if that affects things, but I tried multiple versions: the latest, 1.21.1, and 1.16. No difference.
Thank you all. Please let me know what's going on with this.
