can i get an update on this? 

I found the same issue, but fixed it by changing the properties on the desktop shortcut for minecraft.  Uncheck the compatibility mode and it updates and allows you to login with the Microsoft account.

when my launcher is loading my mods it will freeze for some time and the I get the error exit code 0 and then some time I get the error code -1 as well I've switched my launcher to the old one many time over and tried to up date the launcher but it keeps up dating the the new launcher and I was the one just before the new one so that my mods will work for 1.16.5 but how do roll back my launcher and how do I fix both of my errors I've also updated my java 8 checked it several times can someone please help me fix my error or give me other ideas to fix them both please and thanks

@vain black, shout I delete the forge installers? I've tried uninstalling the game completely and getting ride of everything and I still run into the same issue. when i made a ticket about it of course it was not help and they marked it as resolved even though it isn't.

Having the same issue. Did the migration to Microsoft.  Received email stating it was complete.  Now, can not log in with mojang or Microsoft logins. Mojang tried to help, said we exhausted all troubleshooting,  and to report here. Has anyone been able to work around this issue? I have Uninstaller and reinstalled the launcher, restarted pc, reset Microsoft password numerous times. This is ridiculous.  

@camden solved this. Anyone having this issue, try what they suggested: On the login prompt in the java launcher, go back. You'll see the mojang account you had been signing into - ignore it, and add a new account to the launcher. Using the email address associated with the microsoft account you just migrated to, sign in with the email address and password of your microsoft account. It's not an elegant migration on the UX side of things, but it does work. 

Had the same issue but resolved following the guidance from @camden and @neewom.

Have to first click "go back" all the way out, you will see a new Microsoft login option, once you've found that you can delete the mojang one as it's no longer in use.

Thank you for your report!
