[MCL-23660] Java username keeps resetting, can't be changed back to name I used before

Every time my Minecraft launcher updates, it resets the username I used for Java edition before the given update.

So far, my only workaround is using a different username to represent my Xbox gamertag.

Hi there!

So, every time an update arrives, your Java username changes?
Can you record a video of this issue?
Can you upload a launcher_log file from your .minecraft folder?
