Unable to connect online or load skin when using Forge

I am writing to request help regarding a persistent issue I am experiencing with Minecraft when using Forge.

For some reason, whenever I use Forge, I am unable to play online. This happens regardless of whether I have mods installed or not. Additionally, my skin does not load, and I am unable to connect to any servers. The game behaves as if it cannot properly connect to online services.

This issue occurs across all launchers I have tried, not just the official launcher. I have already attempted several troubleshooting steps, including:

  • Removing all mods from the mods folder

  • Reinstalling Forge multiple times

  • Using different Minecraft versions

  • Trying different launchers

  • Completely formatting my PC and reinstalling everything from scratch

Despite all of this, the problem persists. My skin still does not load, and I cannot connect to any multiplayer servers when using Forge.

I have searched for solutions on YouTube and forums, but none of the tutorials have resolved my issue. At this point, I do not know what else to try, and I would greatly appreciate your guidance.

Please let me know if you need additional information such as logs, system specifications, or screenshots. I am willing to provide anything necessary to help diagnose the issue.
