I didnt know where to post this so sorry if I'm in the wrong place. Anyways I really want to buy Minecraft Java Edition, but I cant log onto the site. I made an account but when I go to log into the account on minecraft.net it just doesnt load? What I mean is it stays on the log on page and doesnt load the new page to say I'm logged on. I tried this on 2 different browsers and same thing. I also tried logging in on my phone and it worked just fine. And when I go into other sites on my computer it works fine so it isnt my wifi?? Idk what to do, is there a way I can get the game without going onto minecraft.net? I've been wanting the game for forever so any help would be greatly appreciated!!
That's the thing it doesnt give me any message, it just doesn't load the page where it says I'm logged on?? Can I download the launcher without buying the game or logging on? (Sorry I'm such a noob)
Yea you can, you should be able to download the launcher for the demo. A workaround for the website thing is to use your mobile but I'd like to see if you can sign into the launcher before I give you any steps to narrow down the issue
[p]I'd like to run a check for any software that could be the cause of the issue:[/p]

Sorry it took so long but here it is https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TwDNJN3N2B/ . Also I forgot to mention that my computer is kinda old so that might have something to do with it.
The usage of MCLeaks or AltDispenser tools (which are illegal) have been causing issues for many Minecraft users.
To correct these, remove the tool, and remove all entries containing mojang in your system's Host file. After removing it, you must change your password to avoid having your account compromised.
To edit your Host file, please do the following: Go to the Start Menu and locate notepad. Right click notepad and select Run as Administrator
Press File, then Open. Enter %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts as the "File name" and press "Open"

What's the message that it gives you when you try to login to minecraft.net?
Have you already downloaded the launcher? If so try logging in with that

Disable your proxy.

I removed all the files so should I be able to log in now?
If you cleared your host file of all entries containing the word 'mojang' then yes. Just make sure to change your password.
And don't go using MCLeaks again.
