Mojang native launcher update error 5 - CleeHawk - 05-30-2017 Hi good people of HT, This morning I ran Minecraft and was greeted by the Minecraft launcher doing an update. It gave an error message and so I ran Minecraft as Administrator and still got the error message 5. I managed to fix it pretty quickly and then wondered if any information on this problem was on the internet. There was and it was listed as a bug with a temporary fix. The fix is exactly what I did to fix my Minecraft and get it working. I will post the link as it describes the fix well and I'd only be typing the same stuff. One last thing, once you have carried out this fix and run Minecraft, don't be alarmed by a similar update window. It's just unpacking and installing the new launcher from the file you placed. Here is the mojang link: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-5291 All the best HT, Clee RE: Mojang native launcher update error 5 - TonyDG101 - 05-31-2017 hey i had this similar issue , thank you
