What I expected to happen was: I load up the Minecraft launcher and the "Play" button is there, working fine and I can go on and play for hours.
What actually happened was: I loaded up the Minecraft Launcher, and the "play" button was shaded out, and I could not click it, therefore, I could not play Minecraft on 1.6.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Double click the new launcher exe.
2. It should boot up as normal, then the tabs and the profiles should load up.
3. Everything shows fine, visually, except the "Play" button, which is shaded out and cannot be clicked.
NOTE: I upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate, and then it stopped.
Please fix this.
The same happens on linux.
