I have tried reinstalling does not work

The problem with the Minecraft Launcher on macOS is that the launcher is an Intel build that’s running in Rosetta on macOS. macOS will lose Rosetta support (and the ability to run Intel app builds) in a coming release; you can learn more about it here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102527?cid=mc-ols-rosetta-article_102527-macos_finder-52526201

Mojang — Please rebuild the macOS launcher with build targets for Apple silicon or Universal. If you need assistance with getting there, reach out to Apple Developer Technical Support (DTS), or someone in Apple Evangelism.

Hey Found a fix: Go to System Settings > Privacy and Security > App Management. Then allow minecraft to manage apps. this fixed this for me. although I don’t know why minecraft would need this
