Windows: Accounts without admin access can't download JDK through Launcher #37

Closed CodaKidGit closed 2 years ago

CodaKidGit commented 2 years ago

Accounts without admin access can't download JDK or Eclipse through the launcher. The launcher just locks up and refuses to finish the download.

  1. Make an account on a windows computer without admin access.
  2. Install the launcher.
  3. Open the launcher normally.
  4. Go to Minecraft.
  5. Click Download when it asks to get JDK.
  6. It will show the downloading screen but not continue.

Proper behavior: If a step requires admin access, there should be a way to ask windows to elevate the process. That way it doesn't get stuck.
