legacyfan Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 I'm confused on how to get this working I installed vista now and decided to install minecraft to see if it would work but with the xp/vista end of support the old launcher won't work anymore so my question is how can it be made playable again without mods or extended kernels? if anyone could help with this it would be much appreciated -legacyfan 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winvispixp Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 You can give MultiMC a shot; I use it, but with extended kernel To make it work you first need to have sha-2 support (kb4474419, maybe even kb4493730, i don't know, i installed it because it was in my folder), so that already changes your vista build number from 6002 to 6003 Then you need a working browser (I used mypal 68) to sign in to your minecraft (microsoft) account, if you don't have the updates mentioned it will fail with the error "xbox user authentication failed" The newest version you can play is 1.16.5; newer versions require java 16 which does not work properly (with ex. kernel you can go up to some 1.18 snapshots) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
