Minecraft start problem
I got new computer and I wanted to install Minecraft (Original version). When I opened the launcher, it shows small message box, writing 'Downloading runtime'. When this download finished, It shows up one more box, and there was written 'Unable to start launcher, please try again.' I tried it almost 20 times and it still isn't working. How do I fix this.

I had the same problem so here's what I did.
go to https://minecraft.net/download and where it says "Minecraft for Windows" click on "show more platforms" and try the old download. It worked just fine for me.
