After installing the new launcher for Minecraft, my Java installation broke, which by the way was on a another hard drive, this renders me unable to install mods, I mean unless I could find the JRE folder again with the new launcher, then I could install mods.

Hi there!
Could you answer few questions regarding this issue, it will help with the investigation:
Does this issue happened more than once?
If yes, did it happen on the newest version of the Launcher?
Does this issue occur on minecraft.net website/MS store version of the Launcher?
Have you tried to install Launcher from the minecraft.net website/MS store?
Are you logged in in both Xbox app, MS store, and Launcher with the same MS account?
Have you tried signing out of all your Windows Apps, and the signing in again?
Is your Windows and associated apps (Xbox app, MS store) up-to-date?
Have you tried downloading 'Xbox Identity Provider' found here https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/xbox-identity-provider/9wzdncrd1hkw#activetab=pivot:overviewtab (or in MS store)?
Do you use VPN or any of the incompatible software on machine you try to log-in?
Could you provide us with more in-depth repro steps?
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
I have fixed this because for some reason I have a java installation somewhere else too, but either way it still breaks it, I am just fortunate that I had a backup installation.
