After I click install for Minecraft for Windows in the Minecraft Launcher, it just changes to a Dark-Green version of play, which I could not click.
I've left my computer on for around 9 hours, but to no avail. I've tried reinstalling the Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft Store and the Website, rebooting the device, signing out of the Microsoft account and signing back in, ending the task in Task Manager.
This only happened after Minecraft Java and Bedrock were together on PC. I downloaded the demo before this happened, and it worked just fine. Although I could have signed in to the demo Minecraft, and still be fine, I deleted the app because it was outdated and there was no possible way for me to update it unless I downloaded it back from the launcher. Also, for some weird reason, I can download Minecraft: Java Edition just fine.
I was using a Microsoft account, obviously.
I am aware that it might be not enrolled to me yet, although it is currently 10 June here, and I think it has been enrolled, as I can clearly see the offer in my Microsoft Store, and I can download it.
My device meets the criteria for Minecraft for Windows; the CPU is an Intel Gemini Lake J5005 Processor @ 1.50 GHz, with 16 GB RAM. The GPU is an Intel UHD Graphics 605 released on Q2 2018, a storage of 240 GB SSD, and Windows 10 Pro build 18363.1350.
UPDATE: A bit irrelevant but downloading that from the Xbox app does not work, it shows an error.
2ND UPDATE: I've checked other bug reports, and most say that reinstalling/stopping the launcher works. But in my case, it does not. Also, I checked if I have any other pending installations, and I do not.

I do not think you can do that anymore since the update where Java and Bedrock are fused together.
I already have the Xbox app.
And I don't think it was downloading anyway, I couldn't see the file in the directory where you find all your apps' files.
UPDATE: You can do it, but it will show an error, just like my friend said so.
Thank you for your report!
