Cant play minecraft 1.8.9 vanilla or modded with minecraft launcher.

Basically when i try to load up minecraft 1.8.9 (vanilla and modded),1.12.2 (forge) or 1.16.4 (vanilla and optifine) it just doesnt load. Basically i try to launch the game once, it just doesnt load the game so i press the play button again and i get the message "the game is already running in this game directory" but the game hasnt loaded or even started. I have tried restarting my pc, uninstalling then reinstalling minecraft, repairing minecraft launcher. Also this is a launcher issue i think because custom client launchers like lunar client and badlion still work but normal minecraft launcher wont.

also when i press start anyway in the warning menu is still wont launch minecraft for some reason.
