[MCL-24671] When there is a Minecraft update the launcher will say "install" instead of "update"

When there is a Minecraft bedrock or preview update the launcher in the "installation menu" will say "install" instead of "update" and there will be a message that says that minecraft is not installed on the device even if it is installed.

Hi!

Can you please boot MS store / Xbox app and see if the installation starts there? (see in library).

Yes, I have all those items installed, and I have no problem updating the game through the Microsoft Store, but previously I could update the game through the launcher as well, with a yellow button that said "update", but recently I have this problem.

Hi!

Please uninstall the Launcher, delete .minecraft folder (copy its content elsewhere before deletion) and then reinstall, restart your computer. Then please try to boot the Launcher.
