#40 [05:03] <Aur7> hi, since last week, in games I can no longer connect to premium servers. (Authentication servers are down, please try again later, sorry!) I esay other PC, on other connection and even in cloud gaming on nvidia NOW.
#41 [05:03] <Aur7> the problem comes from my Minecraft account. I try to contact Mojang without success
#42 [05:05] * Xeyame [~Xeyame@server-q7su72.xeya.me] has quit. (Remote host closed the connection)
#43 [05:08] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Hey. When you were working with Andrio, did he ask you to try connecting to servers whilst using a mobile hotspot?
#44 [05:09] <Aur7> I already tried, the problem is internally at Mojang Greymagic27
#45 [05:10] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Have you contacted your ISP about the issue?
#46 [05:13] <Aur7> Greymagic27 no, but the problem does not come from the connection, I have cloud gaming with the same problem and it is also done on local servers
#47 [05:15] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Alright well I've been looking back over the chat you had with Andrio, and it looks like we've gone through all of the common causes. Saying that, I'm wondering if it's a windows profile issue or a mojang issue as you've said.
#48 [05:15] <Greymagic27> ??> Aur7 win/profile
#49 [05:15] <Mightyena> Aur7: It may be helpful to isolate whether this is a problem with your user account, or with your system as a whole.
#50 [05:15] <Mightyena> Aur7: Please create a new user profile (a computer user, not a new Minecraft account), log in as that user, and try Minecraft from there. If it works, there's something on your profile that's breaking Java or Minecraft. If not, there's something amiss with your system as a whole.

#53 [05:18] <Aur7> Mightyena Greymagic27 I want to try, but as I say even in cloud gaming on Nvidia NOW it does not work ...
#54 [05:19] <Aur7> and that would mean that my 2 PC, (laptop and tower) does not work
#55 [05:19] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Hmm ok. Right now your only option is to wait for mojang to reply
#56 [05:20] <Aur7> it's been a week, I'm not even notified that my application was received
#57 [05:21] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Did you not get any sort of auto response?
#58 [05:21] <Aur7> nop
#59 [05:21] <Aur7> I did not receive anything
#60 [05:21] <Greymagic27> Aur7, That's odd. What email provider did you use to send the email?

#64 [05:22] <Greymagic27> Aur7, Did you email them using this link? https://help.mojang.com/customer/portal/emails/new
#65 [05:24] <Aur7> WTF ? is not the same site ?!
#66 [05:25] <Greymagic27> Aur7, If you're talking about the 'we've moved message' then no, that's not the site you email them at anymore.
#67 [05:25] <Greymagic27> But when you did send them an email, that would have been where you sent the email. Did you use that site?
#68 [05:26] <Aur7> I am sent to them for this sit
#69 [05:26] <Aur7> not from https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us
#70 [05:26] <Greymagic27> Aur7, That's odd then why you didn't get any sort of auto response. Did you check your SPAM/Junk folder??
#71 [05:26] <Greymagic27> ?*
#72 [05:28] <Aur7> I am nothing
#73 [05:28] <Aur7> I only want to redo a request on the new site -_-
#74 [05:29] <Greymagic27> Aur7, If you are to send another email, use a different provider such as Gmail. FREE may be dropping mojang's emails
#75 [05:29] <Aur7> I will try Roundcube
#76 [05:40] <Aur7> I am contacted, thank you for your help

#201 [10:12] <Greymagic27> Nathan1164, Stop trying to access the file directly. Instead, use notepad to enter your host file.

#205 [10:13] <Mightyena> Nathan1164: Press File, then Open. Enter %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts as the "File name" and press "Open"
#206 [10:13] <Nethhh> So no luck for now, when should I try again?
#207 [10:13] <Nathan1164> im using the notepad as an admin to access the file

No error screen, nothing, I still see the login page with the login information i filled in. Can someone explain me this strange behaviour? How can we fix that issue? Thanks.
#426 [11:42] <mattym> Ok, Only common thing we know to have caused issues in the past that you all have is Discords overlay. Go into the Discord program and turn off its ingame overlay feature then try to launch again. Let me know if it works after that.

#435 [11:44] <mattym> Crypt, You dont.
#436 [11:45] <Crypt> on the twitch app it says minecraft is not installed but it is on my machine
#437 [11:45] <Esben> Uhm okay - It doesn't seem to work with the overlay-thing
#438 [11:45] <mattym> Esben, You mean with the Overlay OFF?
#439 [11:45] <mowgli> I just quit discord completely and it would appear to not work
#440 [11:45] <mattym> Crypt, Speak with Twitch support then.

So I am not sure how to proceed. I am going to recommend you all do the following. Uninstall the launcher directly from the Programs & Features or Add/Remove Programs section in Control Panel.

#642 [12:36] <Mike7> No, after I click play
#643 [12:36] <Mike7> Still on the launcher
#644 [12:37] <mowgli> I quit the launcher and tried again now it is downloading
#645 [12:37] <Mario> im new here, just bought minecraft and installed it, once I start the launcher it downloads some stuff but the launcher itself does not start up. the .minecraft folder has a log file with the following error.
#646 [12:37] <Mario> Error: 2019-10-09 17:36:31.3124874: LauncherConfiguration.cpp(26)] Failed to determine configuration file size:
#647 [12:37] <mowgli> and the game has launched also
#648 [12:38] <mattym> Mario, We are working on finding a fix for the issue atm, hang tight.
#649 [12:38] <Mario> oh weird! i thought thats a problem only I have as my friends are playing haha
#650 [12:39] <mattym> Mario, Its not effecting everyone, but there are quite a few with the issue.
#651 [12:39] <Esben> Okay, I've made a copy of the folder ".minecraft", and selected "Properties", but I don't see any "compatibility tab"
#652 [12:39] <mattym> Esben, Properties on the Minecraft launcher shortcut
#653 [12:40] <mowgli> after launching from windows vista then reverting it back to normal , it boots up fine for me
#654 [12:40] <mowgli> normal launcher
#655 [12:40] <Mike7> mattym I think I fixed it. I started it up using the Vista compatibility, opened it up to let it do its thing. Got stuck at the "preparing". I let it sit for a couple of minutes, closed it and turned off the compatibility and now it opened up for me. I'm about to see if the game loads
#656 [12:41] <mattym> Mike7, Ok
#657 [12:41] <Mike7> Looks like the newest launcher, it's downloading
#658 [12:41] <mattym> mowgli, So to confirm, compat on, compat off, now the new launcher works?
#659 [12:41] <Mike7> Yeah
#660 [12:42] <mowgli> yes its working for me now only after I booted it up , launched the game, then quit and turned it off and the new launcher works fine
#661 [12:42] <Esben> Oh ok, it worked - sorry, but I'

#666 [12:42] <mattym> Mario, As the others suggested, try now turning compat mode off and see if the normal launcher works find.
#667 [12:42] <mattym> fine*
#668 [12:42] <Mike7> Alright I'm in the game
#669 [12:43] <Mario> yes, works fine and looks fresh and new
#670 [12:43] <Esben> I'm not in the game, it just says "Preparing"
#671 [12:44] <mattym> Esben, Turn off compat mode now and try launching normally

#866 [13:38] <Lurks> Kiefer have you check your spam/junk section for the email aswell?
#867 [13:38] <Kiefer> yes
#868 [13:39] <mattym> jws3rd, if you changed an email it was already a migrated account.
#869 [13:40] <jws3rd> I believe change was requested around 2015

#871 [13:40] <jws3rd> Unsure when all the changes were made with Mojang as a business
#872 [13:41] <jws3rd> I never played as it was always for him, but only required to be under my name since he was a minor.
#873 [13:41] <Lurks> Kiefer i think you have to contact mojang support

#892 [13:44] <mattym> jws3rd, Well according to the username API, the name has been changed. Which means someone likely hacked the account.
#893 [13:44] <jws3rd> He is actually home on leave and here with me to confirm as we are trying to resolve before he reports to new duty station
#894 [13:44] <mattym> jws3rd, You will need to contact Mojang the same way Mightyena told the previous user.
#895 [13:45] <jws3rd> That link is Unavailable
#896 [13:45] <mattym> jws3rd, First link
#897 [13:46] <jws3rd> Or rather the article associated with it is unavailable
#898 [13:46] <mattym> jws3rd, Right, that one is not important, you need to fill out the form in the first link.
#899 [13:47] <jws3rd> I will try. It took weeks for them to get back last time saying they could not help without credit card info from 8 years ago.

#915 [13:51] <mattym> jws3rd, Its asking for it, but the lack of red* next to that box should let you submit with it empty.
#916 [13:51] <jws3rd> If the fields are blank, will that delay response that you said already may be months in coming?
#917 [13:51] <Nathan1164> I run the minecraft launcher and it says updating legacy java launcher and as its almost done it says. unable to update the minecraft legacy launcher
#918 [13:52] <mattym> jws3rd, No, they reply to every message in the order received even if its missing stuff. They just ask for that stuff in the response. Gamertags do not apply to the Java Edition.
#919 [13:52] <jws3rd> With that kind of backlog, you would think more resources would be added to resolve issues and enhance revenue

#946 [13:58] <Nos_Attack> @mattym used it last would be 2015 ish. Used a username to login and pass
#947 [13:58] <mattym> pla8y, Consider the workaround the fix.
#948 [13:58] <mattym> Nos_Attack, Then you need to migrate your account.

#1001 [14:48] <Jimbroony> hello i recently changed my name from Jimbroony to EdwardSparkles thinking that it would be temporary but when i went to go change it back to Jimbroony it said i cant change it for 30 days.. when i looked up when the date is that im able to change back it doesnt tell me the date nor the date that i changed my name is there a possability that i coul
#1002 [14:48] <Jimbroony> d just get a change back to my name please ?
#1003 [14:48] <jws3rd> I went and got with my son and we backchecked and found an email, dated January 10, 2015,from Mojang saying that his user name was changed to "Frostflame" and gave only 6 hours for him to contact if wrong. He did not see this email in time to prevent the change and has been trying to recover the account since that time.
#1004 [14:49] <mattym> Jimbroony, No, you need to wait the 30 days.
#1005 [14:50] <mattym> jws3rd, You still need to contact Mojang as instructed.
#1006 [14:50] <jws3rd> Thus, it is certain that the email had been updated to his account prior to that date. Yet, Mojang keeps saying that they need info from when the account was initially set up under my account 4 years prior before they can help. Does that make any sense?
#1007 [14:50] <jws3rd> I put in the request, but am uncertain as to whether it is going to be another wait of months to get an email saying they could not find the problem.
#1008 [14:50] <Jimbroony> theres no valid date of when i changed it and it doesnt show the date of when my 30 days is up
#1009 [14:50] <mattym> jws3rd, As long as you included the gift code you found in the support ticket in place of the Transaction-ID, you should be fine once they get around to it.
#1010 [14:50] <Saltyboi6704> i couldnt log on to minecraft from my laptop ut it works perfectly from my phone, and +matt told me to use the hackthis malware detector

#1020 [14:53] <mattym> Saltyboi6704, To correct these, remove the tool, and remove all entries containing mojang in your system's Host file. After removing it, you must change your password to avoid having your account compromised.

#1036 [15:00] <jws3rd> Yes, I sent that as you directed. Mojang email replied with a thank you for purchasing a gift code and additional comments that I could log in and see all purchases related to this account

However, instead, every reply from support since 2015 has said that they need the credit card number from 2011.
#1040 [15:03] <mattym> jws3rd, Did you include the gift code in prior communications?
#1041 [15:03] <jws3rd> My concern is that where I reported with my info as instructed. They are not going to associate the gift code to his email on file prior to the hack.

#1043 [15:08] <jws3rd> How many times are you going to ask that? I have twice told you "YES" I included it and they replied saying Thank you for purchasing a Minecraft gift code! and so on about how I can log in and see the other purchases

#1062 [15:13] <jws3rd> The original email was not used under Minecraft so I think that may be reason it is not recognized

#1064 [15:13] <Valentin> i play on 1.7 win my account , but now i can't connect
#1065 [15:13] <mattym> Valentin, We do not support old versions here.
#1066 [15:13] <mattym> Emrakulus, What version of OSX/MacOS?
#1067 [15:13] <Valentin> have a mail ?
#1068 [15:14] <jws3rd> Minecraft does not send reset link to son's email even though they sent email regarding account changes to that account in 2015 and gave only 6 hours to notify them of change
#1069 [15:14] <Valentin> for support minecraft ?
#1070 [15:14] <mattym> Valentin, You will need to seek other support resources, Mojang does not do support for old versions either.
#1071 [15:14] <RamsyBacon> I'm trying to load my minecraft launcher but it just says "Unable to update the Minecraft Native Launcher"
#1072 [15:14] <Emrakulus> I ll check
#1073 [15:14] <mattym> jws3rd, Well yeah, if the account was hacked, they likely also changed the email on it.
#1074 [15:15] <mattym> RamsyBacon, Windows or Mac?
#1075 [15:15] * Valentin [webchat@lfbn-1-11800-33.w90-93.abo.wanadoo.fr] has quit. (Client Quit)
#1076 [15:15] <jws3rd> Apparently the hacker was able to change the email address on file and the user name from the one I provided you earlier
#1077 [15:15] <RamsyBacon> Mac
#1078 [15:15] <mattym> jws3rd, Yeah the issue I am seeing, is the system only shows it ever having 2 usernames, the one you knew and a new one, not the one you said the email mentioned.
#1079 [15:15] <jws3rd> We figured that out, but why would Mojang not be able to figure that out when he is contacting them from the account that was on file requesting help to recover his account.
#1080 [15:16] <mattym> jws3rd, So I am wondering if there is an entire other account involved somewhere.
#1081 [15:16] <jws3rd> Frostflame is the one noted in the email from Mojang
#1082 [15:16] <jws3rd> But that was never his user name
#1083 [15:16] <mattym> jws3rd, And also not showing up in the name change history.
#1084 [15:16] <mattym> RamsyBacon, Do you have any Antivirus, Firewall, VPN, Ad Blocking or Parental Control software installed?
#1085 [15:17] <mattym> jws3rd, What date did you say that name change report came in?
#1086 [15:17] <RamsyBacon> Possibly parental controls, since my dad takes care of problematic software issues on my computer
#1087 [15:18] <mattym> RamsyBacon, If you can find out what the name of the program being used for that is, if any, we may have steps to fix the issue.
#1088 [15:18] <jws3rd> To reset your password, visit this url within six hours:
#1089 [15:18] <jws3rd> https://minecraft.net/resetpassword?user=Frostflame&uid=86e69aaac13babb0134915bff8a04410
#1090 [15:18] <mattym> jws3rd, What date was that email sent?
#1091 [15:18] <RamsyBacon> I'll check with my dad brb
#1092 [15:18] <mattym> jws3rd, That is not a link anyone buy you can access.
#1093 [15:19] <jws3rd> That is from the email sent to him January 10, 2015 to his email
#1094 [15:19] <mattym> jws3rd, Can you find out what email address that message came from?
#1095 [15:20] <jws3rd> From: Mojang <noreply@mojang.com>
#1096 [15:20] <jws3rd> Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2015 10:21:42 AM
#1097 [15:21] <jws3rd> We have the email, but when he contacts support they do nothing
#1098 [15:22] <jws3rd> Just reply saying they need the credit card number from when account was opened (in 2011)
#1099 [15:23] <Emrakulus> I think it is 10.13.6
#1100 [15:23] <mattym> jws3rd, Yeah, I think I know why. If as you said you created it with your email, and then changed it to your sons. That means whoever hacked it, also got access to the gift code, rendering it useless as proof. So they are going to need additional info only you should have.
#1101 [15:23] <jws3rd> I have emailed them from my account that was initially on the file and requested they help him and get no reply
#1102 [15:24] <mattym> Emrakulus, Ok should be no issue there. Have you tried restarting the PC and trying to start the game before loading anything else?
#1103 [15:24] <Emrakulus> Yep
#1104 [15:25] <jws3rd> I can provide date and amount of purchase, type of card used, vendor id supplied by credit card company, copy of the email from them reflecting purchase of gift code and ip address from where purchased
#1105 [15:25] <mattym> jws3rd, Yeah, anyone can have also access the email, so its not enough to prove you are the owner.
#1106 [15:25] <jws3rd> Shouldn't that be enough
#1107 [15:25] <jws3rd> They are two different email accounts
#1108 [15:25] <mattym> jws3rd, The price is known, again anyone can access your email and get most of the rest of that info.
#1109 [15:26] <mattym> jws3rd, If they ask for specific info in their reply, and you do not provide that info they asked for, you are gonna be out of luck.
#1110 [15:26] <mattym> Emrakulus, Do you have any Antivirus, Firewall, VPN, Ad Blocking or Parental Control software installed?
#1111 [15:26] <jws3rd> No, the credit card used info is not in any email
#1112 [15:26] <jws3rd> Nor the phone numbers or address
#1113 [15:26] <jws3rd> Nor the ip address
#1114 [15:27] <mattym> jws3rd, There are not all that many 'types' of cards, and the vendor ID is gonna be the same for anyone that purchases the game.
#1115 [15:27] <mattym> jws3rd, The IP could have been found once they logged into the account they hacked.
#1116 [15:27] <jws3rd> And the fact that we are contacting them from original and subsequent emails on the account
#1117 [15:27] * Qroqus [webchat@178-119-145-254.access.telenet.be] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1118 [15:27] <Qroqus> Hello! I've got a question
#1119 [15:28] <mattym> jws3rd, Well if the hacker changed the email on the account to theirs (which the did as you no longer get the reset emails), then they also had to have access to the email that was on the account.
#1120 [15:28] <jws3rd> The specific card on the specific date in the specific amount and with my name on the card used to purchase should be enough.
#1121 [15:28] <mattym> jws3rd, You said you no longer had the card number.
#1122 [15:30] <jws3rd> Sounds like they accepted the change and provided an unreasonably short time for him to contact them to avoid losing the account he had used for four years and then seemingly blame him for the hacker by allowing the hacker to retain control of the account
#1123 [15:30] <Emrakulus> there is none of these
#1124 [15:31] <jws3rd> That's right. The numbers have changed by the bank several times because of hackers. However, Mojang should have the info on file for the date and time related to the email they sent showing the purchase.
#1125 [15:31] <mattym> Emrakulus, Can you check if the default Mac firewall is on? found in the Settings apps Safety & Security sections.
#1126 [15:32] <jws3rd> Maybe this helps explain why they are months behind on support :(
#1127 [15:32] <mattym> jws3rd, They need proof that is considered acceptable, if you do not have exactly what they ask for (not an explanation or excuse to try and use other info) they cannot help you.
#1128 [15:33] <jws3rd> Believe me, I have tried telling him to spend his money on other software with better support. However, he really wants his account and to continue.
#1129 [15:33] <jws3rd> They are the ones deciding what is acceptable
#1130 [15:33] <jws3rd> Do you know every credit card number you have ever used?
#1131 [15:33] <mattym> jws3rd, Yes they are. Because they have to make sure they dont give it to someone else.
#1132 [15:33] <mattym> jws3rd, Yes actually.
#1133 [15:34] <mattym> jws3rd, I have only ever had 1 credit card, with 2 numbers.
#1134 [15:34] <Emrakulus> firewall is off
#1135 [15:34] <mattym> jws3rd, I also have my transaction-ID backed up in several locations.
#1136 [15:34] <jws3rd> Well, being 55 and having ran several businesses, I have had too many to remember them all
#1137 [15:34] <mattym> jws3rd, And backups of the gift codes I gave my friends just in case they ever need it.
#1138 [15:35] <mattym> Emrakulus, Was it off, or did you just turn it off.
#1139 [15:35] <Emrakulus> it was off
#1140 [15:35] <mattym> Emrakulus, Have you tried a complete reinstall of the launcher? By removing the app from the Applications folder and reinstalling from a fresh download from minecraft.net/download ?
#1141 [15:35] <jws3rd> Would not expect that after 4 years of him using the account that we would need to keep it because Mojang lets a hacker change it without that info, but yet demand it from him to recover the account.
#1142 [15:36] <mattym> jws3rd, The hacker got the credentials and logged in, no reason to believe its not the person who should have access to it.
#1143 [15:37] <jws3rd> Its odd that you say this is safe when you typed that ours was made invalid because of the hacker having maybe obtained it.

#1145 [15:38] <mattym> jws3rd, Well the code would have been listed on the account page, as you saw was mentioned in the auto-reply.
#1146 [15:38] <Emrakulus> yep
#1147 [15:38] <jws3rd> That's a flawed argument as you have acknowledged and they are well aware that hackers also can gain this info
#1148 [15:38] <Emrakulus> https://imgur.com/a/PJUdzMB this is how it looks like
#1149 [15:38] <Lofidelity> Hi, im trying to get a cape, and suggestions how? I'm trying to make it custom but just wondering.
#1150 [15:38] <mattym> jws3rd, If someone else had access to the account, they would have that info.
#1151 [15:38] <mattym> Lofidelity, You cannot.
#1152 [15:38] <Lofidelity> I cant get a cape?
#1153 [15:38] <mattym> Lofidelity, No
#1154 [15:38] <jws3rd> Good that you are the one pointing out the flaws in their system and not just myself doing it
#1155 [15:39] <mattym> jws3rd, Its not a flaw.
#1156 [15:39] <Lofidelity> So you can't buy one from optifine? No way to buy it?
#1157 [15:39] <mattym> jws3rd, It only applies to people that let their account get hacked.
#1158 [15:39] <Emrakulus> and then it shows "you cant open application minecraft because it is not responding"
#1159 [15:39] <mattym> Lofidelity, Optifine capes are fake.
#1160 [15:39] <mattym> Emrakulus, Can you check the Macs update checker for any non-OS updates?
#1161 [15:40] <Lofidelity> Really? oh, how does other clients get capes?
#1162 [15:40] <jws3rd> Multi-million dollar businesses and governments get hacked. It is common.
#1163 [15:40] <mattym> Lofidelity, Have attended a Minecon in the past. No longer something they do.
#1164 [15:40] <mattym> jws3rd, Mojang didn't get hacked, your account did.
#1165 [15:41] <jws3rd> Why not require the purchase info be entered in order to see purchase history.
#1166 [15:41] <Lofidelity> I mean, I'm on pvplounge and they have capes...
#1167 [15:41] <Emrakulus> how to check it?
#1168 [15:41] <jws3rd> Actually, my account did not.
#1169 [15:41] <mattym> Emrakulus, I forget how thats done on more recent Macs.
#1170 [15:41] <jws3rd> I run security software. Mojang was the one who allowed the hacker access.
#1171 [15:42] <jws3rd> My 17 year old son may have allowed the hack at the time
#1172 [15:42] <mattym> Lofidelity, So you are admitting to using a pirated version of the game?
#1173 [15:42] <jws3rd> On his device
#1174 [15:42] <Lofidelity> Its pirated?
#1175 [15:42] <mattym> Lofidelity, pvplounge is.
#1176 [15:43] <Lofidelity> hmm why hasn't mojang done anything about that?
#1177 [15:43] <mattym> Lofidelity, Legal processes take time.
#1178 [15:43] <Lofidelity> They filed a lawsuit against them or its just taking time?
#1179 [15:43] <mattym> jws3rd, Listen at the end of the day, if you cannot give them the info they need, they cannot help.
#1180 [15:43] <mattym> Lofidelity, No idea that would not be knowledge generally available to the public.
#1181 [15:44] <Lofidelity> Oh, ok should I stop using it or what?
#1182 [15:44] <mattym> Lofidelity, Yes, buy the game, use the official launcher.
#1183 [15:44] <Emrakulus> I dont have any clue how to fix it, ill try tomorrow, thank u very much

#1272 [16:35] <angela> hello having an issue in a LAN world with my sister. The problem with this used to be that the HOST'S skin would not show up and would be a default skin but now it is happening for my sister. Whenever she enters my LAN world her skin completely changes to the default skin but when she goes into her own game her skin is there
#1273 [16:36] <angela> is there a problem with my LAN world because this problem just started occurring 5 minutes ago even though i could see her skin when she first joined
#1274 [16:36] <Keyboard> I have tried using every fix possible to fix the launcher.dll missing issue in minecraft and yet still get the issue, I have restarted my computer, reinstalled minecraft, repaired minecraft, deleted appdata, disabled firewall, reinstalled java, reset network in windows, tried using the old launcher, and yet still can't get minecraft to work.
#1275 [16:37] <mattym> angela, Skins are not always meant to work on LAN worlds, because LAN worlds do not go through the skin servers.
#1276 [16:37] <angela> maybe try getting back appdata doesnt seem good that you deleted that
#1277 [16:37] <mattym> Keyboard, What is the exact issue error you are getting?
#1278 [16:38] <angela> right but its just confusing that her skin is completely changing. It should at least have her skin

#1280 [16:38] <angela> it like actually changes the skin like she went onto minecraft.net and changed her skin to default
#1281 [16:39] <angela> idk its just confusing cause i could see her skin like for the past 5 hours weve been playing and we leave for not even 10 seconds and the game is completely changing her skin. i understand its not guaranteed but it doesn't make sense for it to literally completely change

#1296 [16:42] <mattym> bruh_, Deleting your email account should have no effect on your MC/Mojang account. All it means is you will no longer be able to change any of your account info that would normally need an email.

#1318 [16:49] <Keyboard> okay
#1319 [16:50] <mattym> Keyboard, Uninstall via Control Panel, delete the stuff from .minecraft (in APPDATA) except for your saves folder if you have any.
#1320 [16:50] <mattym> Keyboard, Also delete the Minecraft Launcher folder from Program Files if its still there after the uninstall.
#1321 [16:50] <mattym> Keyboard, After that is all done, restart the PC. Then download a fresh installer from minecraft.net/download and try the install again.

#1449 [22:08] <luis02> no, I can not enter any, they also told me that the servers could be down but I tried with others and it gave me the same result
#1450 [22:08] <mattym> JP, Depends as there are two versions on the PC. Do you know if your son has the Java Edition or Bedrock/Windows 10 Edition?
#1451 [22:08] <JP> He has android. His classmate has PC.
#1452 [22:09] <JP> I think they have windows10.
#1453 [22:09] <mattym> JP, Ah sorry, misread that. If the friends have the Windows 10 version on the PC it will work. But keep in mind Java Edition does also work on Windows 10 computes, but is not compatible with Android.
#1454 [22:10] <mattym> JP, Basically if his friends version does not use Xbox Live accounts, then its not compatible.
#1455 [22:11] <mattym> fore, Sounds like they gave you a card from old stock. That offer ended last October.
#1456 [22:12] <mattym> Lzzy, Are you currently in the chat on the computer with the issue?
#1457 [22:14] <fore> Seriously? Nowhere on the card does it have an expiry. Not to vent, but I am seriously upset with Mojang. I already have Minecraft (2012), but I've been waiting for months (Transaction ID in hand) to resolve the game I already paid for. I just bought it again for no reason because it promised the version I wanted on the card. Shadey business. Now I
#1458 [22:14] <fore> have to go buy it again, this is borderline criminal.
#1459 [22:15] <mattym> fore, Don't blame Mojang. Blame Walmart for having outdated stuff on their shelf.

#1461 [22:15] <mattym> fore, Also note that the Windows 10 Edition can only be purchased via digital code or directly from the Microsoft Store app. There are not physical cards for it.
#1462 [22:17] <fore> All due respect, Walmart just sold me the card. The card with no time limit posted is what lied to me. Alas, I'm just out more money on a game I have to buy a third time now. They've sold 174 million copies, they should be able to sort this kind of thing out.
#1463 [22:18] <mattym> fore, My point is Walmart should have removed those cards close to a year ago.

#1469 [22:21] <Elmo> Yes
#1470 [22:21] <fore> Fair enough, my point is I am the customer. The card has been used, I'm sure Walmart won't be refunding me. So where does the 'blame' lay? Sounds like I pay the price, and a giant company will take 3 months to even look at my problem. Not here to argue, but seriously ridiculous customer service. thanks for your time
#1471 [22:21] <Elmo> I've already uninstalled bytefence

#1473 [22:22] <Elmo> I've seen that people that havent been using mods have the same issue
#1474 [22:22] <Elmo> Are you aware of the "unable to save download" error?
#1475 [22:22] <mattym> Elmo, Yes, but yours works without them, so its not one of the usual causes for the issue.
#1476 [22:22] <Elmo> ah okay
#1477 [22:23] <mattym> Elmo, You need to go to the people that actually deal with mod support.
#1478 [22:23] <Elmo> I just tried it without forge and it said the exact same thing
#1479 [22:23] <Elmo> it must have been a version difference
#1480 [22:24] <Elmo> I'm using 1.12.2

#1486 [22:26] <JP> Android app seems to be signed on with live profile, but unable to find his friends. Are only online users found?
#1487 [22:29] <mattym> JP, Not sure. But did you check that their version was using Xbox Live accounts?
#1488 [22:34] <JP> My Android minecraft version does not show in xbox.com profile.
#1489 [22:35] <mattym> JP, It wouldn't it just uses the accounts for multiplayer.
#1490 [22:36] <JP> even though I used the live account to login as profile on Android? Is android not multi-player?

#1494 [22:44] <mattym> JP, The Android versions simply use Xbox Live accounts for multiplayer, which they do have. But the Android version is not an Xbox Live game, and will not show up on anywhere on the account.
#1495 [22:45] <Orion> Is anyone else getting the unable to update the java minecraft runtime environment issue? I tried the workaround and it still doesnt work
#1496 [22:46] <mattym> Orion, Your error is specifically saying its the runtime that cannot update?
#1497 [22:46] <Orion> yes
#1498 [22:46] <mattym> Orion, Windows or Mac computer?
#1499 [22:46] <Orion> Windows
#1500 [22:46] <mattym> ??> Orion tools/hjt
#1501 [22:46] <Mightyena> Orion: Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/files/2.0.5%20beta/HijackThis.exe/download
#1502 [22:46] <Mightyena> Orion: Run HijackThis as Administrator, choose "I accept", then "Do a system scan and save a log file". After a while a text file will open. Copy everything, put the log on https://paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link.
#1503 [22:46] <Orion> i also just updated my Java.
#1504 [22:48] <Orion> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5BnjTQBb75/
#1505 [22:49] <mattym> Orion, Ok, that found one potential issue, but not one I would expect to cause this issue.
#1506 [22:49] <mattym> Orion, You were able to successfully install Java on its own?
#1507 [22:50] <Orion> Yes.
#1508 [22:50] <mattym> Orion, But the launcher itself wont even open without that error right?
#1509 [22:51] <Orion> I just uninstalled and reinstalled my Launcher and yes.
#1510 [22:51] <Orion> After re-installing and restarting i get the unable to update launcher error instead.
#1511 [22:52] <mattym> Orion, Ok lets see if the following helps at all.
#1512 [22:52] <mattym> ??> Orion av/adwcleaner
#1513 [22:52] <Mightyena> Orion: Malwarebytes ADWCleaner is a utility to clean a PC which is infested with malware. Download it here: https://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1-adwcleaner/1999/
#1514 [22:52] <Mightyena> Orion: Run it, click Scan Now, once it completes the scan click Clean & Repair, restart the computer when it asks you to and come back here for further instructions.
#1515 [22:53] <JP> my son's android could not find his friend on find friends (they are on Windows 10.
#1516 [22:53] <mattym> JP, Is he sure he got their gamertag correct?
#1517 [22:55] <JP> he says the gamer tag is correct.
#1518 [22:55] <mattym> JP, You may also need to check your sons xbox live account to make sure no parental control settings are blocking the ability to add friends. His friends may also need to do the same.
#1519 [22:56] <JP> Is there a partial search?
#1520 [22:56] <mattym> JP, No idea.

#1526 [23:04] <mattym> Orion, Are you currently on your home network connection?
#1527 [23:04] <Orion> I also just uninstalled and reinstalled Java. Yes
#1528 [23:04] <mattym> Orion, Is the computer your personal one and not one provided by a school/work/library/other?
#1529 [23:05] <Orion> Yes
#1530 [23:08] <mattym> Orion, Didnt pick up anything we know of in the scan, but Do you have any Antivirus, Firewall, VPN, Ad Blocking or Parental Control software installed?
#1531 [23:09] <Orion> Just MalwareBytes and Adblock on Chrome but i disabled them for the time being.
#1532 [23:09] <mattym> Orion, Yeah neither of those would cause whats happening.
#1533 [23:10] <Orion> Could it be a Java related issue?
#1534 [23:11] <mattym> Orion, No. The launcher installs its own Java, and thats where it seems to be getting hung up, not an issue with Java itself, just the launchers ability to download it.
#1535 [23:12] <mattym> Orion, Or installing what it downloaded.
#1536 [23:12] <mattym> Orion, But everything we know to cause those issues is not showing up on your PC.
#1537 [23:12] <Orion> Yeah, i also tried running it in different compatibility modes, same issue.
#1538 [23:14] <mattym> Orion, Did you install it to a location other than its default?
#1539 [23:14] <Orion> Yeah to another drive. Good call.
#1540 [23:15] <mattym> Orion, See if you can install it to your primary driver in the default location and see if that solves it.
#1541 [23:15] <JP> I am getting frustrated with this Android version. It does not seem to be listing my son's friends so he can not group build. Is there a refund I can get for buying this on Google play?
#1542 [23:15] <mattym> JP, You would need to contact Google support about that.
#1543 [23:17] <Orion> Alright reinstalling on the default location worked thanks for your help
#1544 [23:18] <mattym> Orion, Good
