Error Code: 0x80004005 code: Eroded Badlands. A file that the Windows Product Activation (WPA) requires is damaged or missing. Please reboot, verify system permissions, and make sure your operating system is up-to-date.
As far as I know my system is up to date and no files are missing. I opened the launcher as usual except got a sign in message instead which wouldn't work (just kind of froze and gave the error above). I have reinstalled the Minecraft Launcher and restarted my computer it didn't change anything.
Thank you for your report!
