    Dear kavrikeew

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A. 

    It sounds frustrating to run into error code 0x1 when launching Minecraft with your Microsoft account! 

    To fix this issue, you can try following some steps below:  

    1. Go to Start > Control Panel > Uninstall a program 
    2. Select Minecraft in the list 
    3. Right-click it then select Uninstall 
    4. After uninstall process finished, you can re-install Minecraft at Download Minecraft & Server Software | Minecraft 
    5. You can also re-install Minecraft from Microsoft Store
