Background: I run 1.14.3 in a separate directory folder from .minecraft

 

Whenever I try to install Forge for 1.14.3 and choose the directory I use, it comes up with an error saying "The directory is missing a launcher profile. Please run the minecraft launcher first." Even after running the launcher (several times) it doesn't work. 

 

Here is an image of the installer, if it helps. (the folder is called 'aaaaaaaaaa' because i couldn't be bothered to think of a better name. It's just a folder i put everything in when my desktop becomes too cluttered).

Edit: I forgot to mention that i installed it in the default .minecraft folder before, but realised it wouldn't work as the directory for 1.14.3 isn't in .minecraft. Don't know if this helps, just adding it in case.

I don't know what you mean by this, but you must always choose your .minecraft folder when installing the client with the installer. Even for 1.14.3.

I mean I changed the location because the launch directory for 1.14.3 is in a different folder, because I changed it. I'll see if I can put it back.

I can also say that OneDrive's weird file permissions can and have messed with Minecraft in the past.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

I'm having the exact same issue, and every thread I have found that asks this question just has snarky answers like "you're clearly out of your depth." Can someone please answer this?

      Game crash while loading mods

      By HiImScott · Posted

      I tried updating the mods in my modpack which caused incompatibilities so i have tried to revert them back to their older versions i was using before. In the logs it doesnt show me any clear incompatibilities except for tfmg & entity texture features, but when i try to remove those it still doesn't work. I have tried removing the forge-client.toml file which was a suggestion i found on  a few other posts. This is the log file i get. [inline log removed] Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

      Weird crash logs happening for no reason.

      By Brigtato02 · Posted

      I don't use KubeJS, never even heard of it. But after doing what "Ugdhar" suggested earlier in this post with the "config/Mekanism/generator-storage.toml", I tried going into an individual save's serverconfig folder, and just deleting everything except the parcool folder (I have that mod installed.) Then, a bit of loading and temporary freezing later, seems to have worked. Even when quitting to menu and loading back in, or also when quitting to menu, exiting to desktop, and re-launching MC, choose a save and loading it.

      [Mekanism] Broken tags in Mekanism recipes detected, please check server logs for details. You will be missing some recipes and machines may not accept expected inputs. Do you use KubeJS? It is some kind of bug with it and not fixed A workaround is setting "allowAsyncStreams" to false in the KubeJS common config file https://github.com/KubeJS-Mods/KubeJS/issues/1016   For the rest of your issues, keep deleting these files - now it is the jei-server.toml file If the file is not in config, check the worldsave serverconfig folder These files usually break after updating mods, game crashes or force closing the game
