I switched to the new launcher about a week ago. I logged into my Microsoft account (which I transferred to earlier this year). Normally it would just say "play" on the green button. But it now says "play demo" and it also has other prompts for me to "buy" the game.
Not only that, but if I press "play demo", it lets me play the game like normal!

Hello,
Yes
Yes, still same issue
Yes
Yes
Yes, still same issue. Although running it gave a lot of error messages
No
Not sure if it did the same for anyone else, but when the launcher told me there was a new ms store version of the launcher, I deleted the one I had (the one I had before didn't have the same problem), and installed the ms store version. This is when this problem first started and it hasn't been fixed yet.
