I tried everything

-Cleared cache

-uninstall and reinstall

-restart/shutdown

-flushing dns (and other stuff related)

-disabled windows security

-Reset/repair

-Chatgpt

-etc.

Still I get the same error message, this is a Microsoft bug I think.

    I turned on a VPN and it started updating the launcher. I was using a mobile internet connection though, and I think that's why it didn't work. I couldn't find any mention of trying a VPN to fix it anywhere, but I remembered that it's fixed similar problems in the past. And viola

    I look forward to your reply and am ready to collaborate until we reach a resolution. Best of luck!
