    How can I go back to my old Minecraft launcher?

    I know why you want to get it back, but you can't. It got replaced, and even downloads from forums won't help. This is due to a complete removal of the old launcher.

    I got 1.16.1 for speedrunning. When I used this guide to do it it worked but it has a red exclamation mark and it keeps giving me these weird messages. What do I do?
    Community Answer
    It is because 1.16.1 is an older version of Minecraft. In the recent update to the launcher, they put in this to warn you that it is an older version of Minecraft and that it does not support the latest player safety features. Don't worry, you can still play older versions as they were when they came out.
  • Question
    If I downgrade, later on, will I still be able to go back to the latest release version? Or, will I be stuck with the downgraded version and not be able to go back to 1.16.3?
    Community Answer
    You can go back to newer versions. Just use the same method and select 'Latest Release'. This will give you the latest available release.
