Cannot open Minecraft as another instance is running

Arqade Asked by slygunner on January 31, 2021

When I try to launch Minecraft it says another instance of this is running and they will not be responsible for lost files if I launch. So after about 5 hours of trying to delete files to make it work and deleting all my mods and uninstalling and reinstalling Minecraft I’m out of options.

How do I fix this and normally open Minecraft?

One Answer

Seeing this window means that there is another window, or client of Minecraft currently running from that folder. All you have to do is simply close any other windows of Minecraft you may have open.

Alternatively, go into your process' and ensure that any java/Minecraft processes are stopped before trying to run the new client.
