Please have a look at the suggested fixes at MCL-6022 and report back if any of these fixes work.

@Filip Please have a look at the first comment and follow the instructions. You're supposed to upload the crash log file, which is a text file within your Minecraft installation folder.

Just drag and drop the file to this ticket. There is a field under attachments. 

POSSIBLE FIX

Disclaimer ahead: I'm a computer science student. I have knowledge and experience in testing software. I was trying to fix the issue for multiple hours over the course of two days. I can pretty much exclude graphics card driver problems and Java Runtime Engine problems. As far as I can see it doesn't even really matter what Java version you have installed by yourself since the Minecraft launcher downloading a version of it on its own.

I had all the usual problems stated here:

• Installing the Launcher to different directories (recommended and custom on two different drives)

• Installing a version of the game to different directories (recommended and custom on two different drives)

• Updating NVIDIA Graphis Driver for GTX 1060

• Updating Intel Graphics Driver for Intel HD Graphics 530

• Deleting everything (also .minecraft in %appdata%)

What surprisingly fixed the issue for me afterwards was launching the MinecraftLauncher.exe in administrator mode. I just got curious and I knew that in rare occasions this is a common fix for software problems. I launched it multiple times after finding this out in both administrator mode and non-administrator mode and every time I didn't the game crashed on launch.

I hope this is a valuable addition to this problem and not a duplicate. Nevertheless, please add this workaround to the above ticket so people can see it more easily.

EDIT:

Nevertheless, I would recommend everyone to update all drivers and reinstall the game completely including wiping the .minecraft folder. The problem may have something to do with it anyways.
