Cant authenticate

[SansIsCrazy]

I'm using the command portablemc start fabric:1.21:0.15.11 -l (email) and every time, I get <HttpError <HttpResponse 401>, origin: POST https://xsts.auth.xboxlive.com/xsts/authorize, reason: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized> I have minecraft with said email, I've tried --auth-no-browser and had the same issue. It says the -v argument is unrecognized when I try verbose mode. Either there's a bug, or I'm doing something dumb, and/or my computer is doing something dumb. please send hlep

Hi, the -v argument should be placed before start, I think that's your issue with verbosity. About authentication, I don't really know what's going on, I've just checked on my side and it's still working. Could you try with verbosity and portablemc login, this avoids all the overhead of starting the game.

Ok, I did that and got 2 exceptions:

one thing you can try is not authenticate while launching and then install a mod like a account manager to sign in inside of minecraft
