[MCL-8709] My launcher keeps crashing (version 1.12.2)

When i click on "play" the launcher starts, but it goes back to the launcher and says

GAME CRASH
An unexpected issue occured and the game has crashed. We're sorry for the inconveinence.

I tried to find the crash report in the .minecraft folder but couldn't seem to find it. I even tried to get the log output but it just keeps saying "waiting for log output...." If you can help me i'll be really thankful i haven't played Minecraft since 5-6 months ago!

I'll get the log output when it comes up, right now i have to wait until it pops up.

One more thing, i think i accidently choose MCAPI instead of like Minecraft launcher, please ignore that.

Moved to MCL, make sure the version number/OS information is correct.

So the log output isn't showing, what should i do? It's only saying "waiting for log output...."

Locate your .minecraft folder and attach the launcher_log.txt file.

Avend 2017-12-25T21:35:32Z

Done!

Locate your .minecraft folder, delete the libraries folder, and try starting up the game.

Avend 2017-12-25T21:50:12Z

So i have to delete the whole libraries folder right?

[Mod] Neko 2017-12-25T21:52:47Z

Yes, this (the highlighted) folder.

Avend 2017-12-25T21:54:59Z

Hmmm it doesn't seem to work, the same thing is happening.

[Mod] Neko 2017-12-25T22:02:02Z

Do you get any errors when the game crashes?

Avend 2017-12-25T22:04:53Z

Nope just this

Mod Neko, i think i know what this is happening. A lot of pepople have been saying that it's your graphics drivers that needs to be updated. But if it isn't working then you need to buy a new one, i'll try to update it right away. Do you think that this problem is causing the launcher to crash?

Avend 2017-12-26T14:36:31Z

I tried everything, i tried to update the amd graphics card but it didn't work. Idk how to use the graphics card and how to update it, i searched everywhere did everything the same way they did but nothing worked.

This looks like a duplicate of MCL-6866.

Things I'd recommend doing:

Reinstall Java
Delete the whole .minecraft folder (Keep your saves and resource packs!)
Reinstall Minecraft

Thank you so much it worked! But why does the start screen of minecraft say Java Edtion?
And how do i make it back to normal where it just says "Minecraft"

[Mod] violine1101 2017-12-29T13:34:53Z

Because the original Minecraft has been renamed to "Minecraft: Java Edition" and Pocket Edition has been renamed to "Minecraft".

Avend 2017-12-29T13:37:05Z

Ohhh okay so it is supposed to be like that?

[Mod] violine1101 2017-12-29T14:00:19Z

Yeah, unfortunately. I don't like it either.

Avend 2017-12-30T20:25:16Z

It's like Microsoft changed everything, but it's probably just my thoughts.
