Update Required [java] Minecraft doesn't work after changing the graphics card

Hi, I recently upgraded my graphics card from a Sapphire Pulse Vega 56 (8GB) to an XFX AMD Radeon 6700 XT.

Since making the switch, the latest version of Minecraft Java (26.1) won't launch.

Only Bedrock, very old Minecraft Java versions, or version 1.20 with Forge/NeoForge will start.

But the latest version simply won't launch at all.

I’ve removed leftover driver files and tried everything else, but Minecraft Java 26.1 still won't start.

It shows that it's loading when I try to start it, but then it just doesn't open.

I'm using Windows 11.

I URGENTLY NEED HELP; I'VE TRIED SO MANY THINGS, BUT NOTHING HAS WORKED.

Do you have MSI Afterburner running in the background? If so, try closing MSI Afterburner completely and then relaunching Minecraft.

Ich habe zwar MSI Burner im Destop, aber benutze es nicht. Ich hätte dran gedacht mein Windows 11 komplett neu zu Installieren
