I can download the installer from the website, but when I run it, it brings up a screen and doesn't do anything. The first time a bar started at the bottom and then froze; now the bar doesn't even start.

Hi there!
Could you answer few questions regarding this issue, it will help with the investigation:
Does this issue still occurs to you on newest version of Launcher?
Have you tried to install Launcher from the minecraft.net website?
Are you logged in in both Xbox app, MS store, and Launcher with the same MS account?
Is your Windows and associated apps (Xbox app, MS store) up-to-date?
Have you tried to re-registering MS store as written here ?
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.
Go to https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download and select "Download for Windows 7/8". Use the old Java launcher instead. There is currently a bug affecting the latest launcher for Windows 10/11, hopefully, it will get resolved ASAP.
