Bedrock or Java? If Java there are better 3rd party launchers that work like PrismLauncher

I recently tried to open an old save with the Vanilla Minecraft Launcher, took forever. I immediately transferred the save over to Prism.

What I recall Windows forces you to have microsoft store installed. Try to update windows and if that doesn't work, try repairing windows

Back then when I wanted to try it out it was real pain getting it working. There's also a unofficial bedrock launcher which I ended up using https://bedrocklauncher.github.io/

But if you want bedrock on linux, emulating MCPE, virtual machine or wine are your options.

It's happened here before, there's a fix that uses powershell that I think worked for us, reinitializing the windows games library essentially.
