This happened to me a couple days ago. I have high-speed Internet and was able to fix it by uninstalling and reinstalling the launcher.

Potential fix (worked for me):

>> Search the new Minecraft Launcher in the "Apps and features" section in your Windows settings.

>> Click the app, then "move" it to Local Disk C:. I do not know why but the new launcher does not seem to work if it's NOT located in the C: drive.
