I have java downloaded and the launcher works, but when I press play java it just says downloading and then when the downloading finishes, it doesn’t open anything. Pressing play again just gives me the error flag and recommends restarting my launcher. When I do that, it says I already have minecraft open and to close it so I can use the other open launcher even though it is closed. This happens no matter how long it has been since I closed the other launcher. I am not sure how to fix this?
