As stated in the title the game has some serious issues while launching from the Launcher itself. If the minecraft launcher does not have admin privileges the game will not start at all. (See unabletolaunch.png) If the launcher has admin privileges the game will launch up normal. However instead of loading for a bit then going to the character screen instead it will go to a white box that i assume is the login window. However it never loads. (See whitescreen.png) If you click the x on the box it takes you back to saying "Press any button" once you do it goes into a loading screen and will not progress past this. (See loading.png). However if you launch the game via the exe it will run normally. (See working.png) The game runs fine from there.
