Minecraft Launcher

The Minecraft Launcher is the application that players use to "launch" and open Minecraft. The Minecraft Launcher has been updated multiple times to make it more intuitive and easier and better to use in recent years. Players can switch between multiple Minecraft accounts and game versions via the Launcher, including modded versions (such as using Forge), modified versions such as Optifine and 5zig, along with, unfortunately, hacked clients.
