Frequently Asked Questions
Having trouble using Titan Launcher? Here are some answers to common problems.
The game/launcher won't start/other miscellaneous issue?
- FIRST, read the questions below and check if any of them answer your question.
- SECOND, try uninstalling all versions of Java installed on your PC, then install the latest Java from Eclipse (https://adoptium.net).
- LASTLY, if none of this works, send the contents of
Game Output and Development Console in #help-chat in our Discord server. Don't ping staff!
My virus protection won't allow me to install.
- This is due to the license that Titan Launcher had previously having ran out. So this will now be picked up as an unknown file by Windows and a virus protection.
- Try to disable your virus protection, Only for the installation. Ensure to reactivate once installed.
- Once a popup comes up, Try clicking "more info" or something like this. Then "run anyway".
- Wait for your virus protection to scan the file. This may take time depending on your protection. The file should start once completed.
- Try renaming the file. From 'minecraft launcher.exe' to 'minecraft launcher.jar'
This Launcher doesn't have Optifine.
- Installing Optifine is the same as any other launcher. Download the version you need from this page.
- Once downloaded, Double click to start the installation process. Then click install. You will find a new profile on the launcher.
- On Minecraft 1.16 and newer, you should use Iris+Sodium instead for better performance than OptiFine (along with other mods for functions like zoom).
Does this launcher have skins?
- No, you must officially buy Minecraft to set skins. On the MythicMC server, you can buy the MVP perk to set your skin that other players online will see.
- Launchers that claim to let you set skins, only have skins you and other users of the same launcher can see. Anyone using a different launcher will not see your skin!
I want to run this launcher on macOS/Linux!
- Rename the file extension in your file explorer from .exe to .jar as the file is a JAR file.
- If double-click does not work in your file explorer, open a terminal in the directory containing the JAR and run
java -jar "Minecraft Launcher.jar" (assuming Java is in PATH)
VirusTotal/my antivirus says Titan Launcher is a virus!
- VirusTotal uses a wide array of antiviruses for its detection, most popular antiviruses (e.g. Microsoft Defender, Kaspersky, etc) do not flag Titan Launcher!
- Only a handful of terrible antiviruses flag Titan Launcher as a virus. These antiviruses flag any uncommonly used app, not just Titan Launcher.
- Most importantly, make sure you download Titan Launcher from here, and not from any other website!
