How am I supposed to use the launcher if not by executing it?
If I was unclear, by "Executing" I am using the more technical term for running/launching a program on a computer, when I say the launcher won't execute at all, I mean it won't run, with no crash or error logs being generated, nor any new processes appearing on the Task manager. As I have also mentioned, the problem seems to stem from the launcher itself, and not the game, as I am able to play minecraft normally through third party means - this is, of course, not an ideal solution. I do wish to be able to use the official Launcher for more than a handful of reasons.
There is no way to provide crash logs as there aren't any being generated. I will reiterate: The launcher will not execute at all, No new processes are being opened, I don't get a crash or error message. The launcher is simply completely unable to be executed. a .minecraft folder on %appdata% is not being generated, and the only content of the minecraft launcher folder is the executable itself.
I have followed through with the Community Support, but upon attempting to execute the launcher again it seems the problem has resolved itself. I am still not able to identify the cause of the problem, or what was exactly the thing that caused it in the first place, as I have not made any significant changes to my computer or my java executables since I followed through with Minecraft Support before i even made the ticket.
I do suspect it had something to do with corrupt files, and apparently this issue is linked to MCL-17485, as was pointed out by community support.
Regardless, my problem has been resolved (although again, i have no idea why.) and the ticket can be closed and marked as duplicated by the issue above.
