Did y'all change the Minecraft Launcher? I opened Curse as usual, chose a modpack (all of them react the same), and a new screen pops up, requesting I log in (never had to do this before?). Once I comply, it shows a new-to-me "Minecraft Launcher" screen, which displays multiple ads. At the bottom of the screen, it has a large green button that says "Play." If I select the dropdown menu beside it, it displays the name of the mod I wish to play, and if I choose it, it changes the big button to "Play" with "forge 10.13.3(yada yada)". BUT, if I then click on the revised "Play" button, it removes the button and replaces it with a long progress bar along the bottom of the screen. This progress bar states it is "Preparing", but it gets stuck at this point and becomes unresponsive. I don't see my normal launcher screen which has the normal logs/etc. What is going on??? It was working great yesterday!
Try using the official original launcher, instead of the curse launcher. There is a new version of the Minecraft launcher, but I think the original is still downloadable from the website, minecraft.net. The curse launcher may be using the new launcher, which is still in development.
On the other hand, there could be an option within the curse launcher to use the original Minecraft launcher, but
I'm unsure of that. If there isn't any, you can also try downloading the FTB legacy launcher which might also work
Which is why I suggested to look for an option inside the curse launcher to change it back, and if that doesn't work, use the FTB legacy launcher, which I'm pretty sure FTB is what the curse launcher uses for modpacks
Please make your own thread for that, this is about the Curse launcher and the new Minecraft launcher, the problem you are having isn't related to that in any way...
