so thats not an actual minecraft download, in fact that file may be malware, however virustotal.com doesnt show it as such

This IS the official Minecraft download page

the download link on the official Minecraft download page is: https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.dmg

Please see screenshot.

So that doesent solve the issue.

I'm experiencing the same issue in MCL-20159, also on M1 Max.

Hi there!
Have you checked if the Launcher process appears at the task manager and then force quit it?
Could you try to reinstall the Launcher? After deleting it, find .minecraft and delete the file - what is important that this file should be deleted from the trash bin, because corrupted files from the old .minecraft file may interract with the newly generated .minecraft file.

Also please, attach launcher_log file found in .minecraft folder.

This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
