Description of bug

I expected it to launch minecraft 1.8.8 using java 1.8.0, instead it showed a notice about my account not owning minecraft. I used the website (https://minecraft.net) to verify I did indeed still own it. so it should not be rejecting my attempts to play it and asking about playing the demo

Steps to reproduce

*add an account if you did not do it at setup *refresh the account in case it gives an error ++++++++++++++++++++ *press "settings" *press "java" *press "auto detect" *press 1.8.0 *press "OK" *press "close" ++++++++++++++++++++ *press "add instance" *scroll down and press "1.8.8" *press "OK" ++++++++++++++++++++ *click the icon once hit "launch" *note the account error

Suspected cause

it is likely an error in the most recent update of the authentication client. image

update: issue seems to be with account selection, it keeps trying to launch without an account associated with it, no further details are available at the moment

you logged into the wrong microsoft account, 99% certain since I've seen this dozens of time now and eventually the person always figured out they were on the wrong account, so please try doing the login in a different browser or private tab

It shows the same thing it always shows, the only thing that changed was that it says that the account does not own Minecraft On Apr 19, 2024, at 1:59 AM, Philip T. @.***> wrote: what does the accounts screen show?

Experiencing the same issue on windows 10.

Update: set your account as “favorite”, it patched the bug, and when I reinstalled it for an unrelated issue the problem did not reoccur,
