Posted April 16, 20205 yr Just got minecraft for my laptop from microsoft and I am trying to download and install Forge. It says "The directory is missing a launcher profile. Please run the minecraft launcher first. c:\Users\Kayle\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft This is not where microsoft downloaded the game to and they gave me no option to change where they put the game. My game is in ...AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe But when I change the location for java it still tells me there is no minecraft installtion.
April 16, 20205 yr Looks like you got the wrong version of minecraft. You do not want the one from the Microsoft Windows 10 Store thingy (Bedrock Edition) if you want to mod. You want the Java Edition from www.minecraft.net
