Locked out of Minecraft java edition.

[Average Nerd]

So, I don't play minecraft all that often, but when I do, the launcher forgets my username and doesn't let me play.

This is super annoying, because the only way to get it to accept my existence is to change my username, which I can only do once per month.

Bedrock edition works fine btw.

 

In short, I can only play java edition once every 30 days because of this bullcrap,and I paid money for this!

 

If anyone knows how to fix this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Edit: sometimes restarting the launcher a random amount of times it fixes it, sometimes it doesn't.

I'm always logged into the Launcher with my Microsoft/Xbox account.

 

Right now, after restarting the launcher 6 times, it actually did its job and allowed me to launch the game, so.. I guess it's fine right now?
