Just adding an update, this happened again. I had the game open, stuff started being weird on the server I was playing on, as it sometimes does, so I closed the game to re-open it. When I clicked the launcher, nothing happened. Restarted my PC and I got the error in the new screenshot.
I believe deleting and re-installing the Gaming Services app is what ended up fixing it last time, I can't quite remember as I tried at least 20 different things to fix the issue. I've just used the Windows "Repair" option on the GS app, I'll see if that works. If not, I'll try deleting and reinstalling it again to see if that helps. I'll report back what I find.
I fully agree with GoldenHelmet, it would just be better if the launcher weren't so bizarrely integrated into Windows. Nothing good ever seems to come from integrating with MS software.
Just tested again on single player in the same seed at 755, 136, 2173. Another test at 733, 109, 2074. And a third at 801, 128, 2228. All of those coords should be well within a Meadow biome, both by looks of the biome and according to chunkbase. Still no achievement.
*edit: I did verify that I was in worlds that can complete achievements on both the server and singleplayer version.
Apparently opening the "Apps & features" menu, finding Gaming Services, and running the repair feature works. When I went into the MS Store after doing so, it said that the MC Launcher was still installed, as it did last time, but clicking the "Play" button opened the launcher right away this time. So for anyone getting this error, the fix that worked for me was:
Press the Windows key and search "Apps & features"
Find "Gaming Services" in the list and click on it
Click on "Advanced options"
Click "Repair"
Retry the MC Launcher
If that doesn't work, check some of the other stuff in GoldenHelmet's xbox support link, and I wish you the best of luck.
