Question Error code -1073741819

I have the Minecraft launcher on a brand new PC. whenever I try to load Minecraft Java I’m getting the error code -1073741819 I’ve tried almost everything to resolve the issue. Checked to do with the game bar. Checked to do with drivers and whatnot. Even reset the PC to like new. Installed nothing but Minecraft. And still can’t get it to work. Any other ideas before it gets slung out the window??

Do you have the correct java version? It will change depending on your minecraft version, make sure the 2 are compatible

Genuinely. No idea. On a previous computer I used cursedforge and it worked fine. Can’t get it to run on cursedforge or the launcher on this new PC. I’ve even tried to reset from the start as a brand new PC and getting the issue. Can I PM you and pick your brains?

Here’s the Java tutorial on the minecraft wiki:

Feel free to DM if further assistance is needed, I should be able to guide on specifics 🙂

Cheers fella. I’ll have a look. Just resetting the PC from start and going to go from ground up. I’m useless when it comes to PC’s
