On multiple occasions I keep encountering an issue where Minecraft Bedrock edition says it needs to be installed and the Minecraft launcher sits on waiting to install forever in my chosen location.
The part that blows my mind is that I can find the bedrock edition app on my PC and it will launch without issue every time.
BUUUUUT If there's 1 slight update to bedrock or MCL, MCL can't finish or initiate the download. Because of this, next launch of the launcher and it asks me to install.

Some update is causing the Play button to turn into an Install button. It's not usually the computer so uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help. I find if I report and just wait, the techs get it fixed.
Thank you for your report!
