Whenever I open the Minecraft launcher signed in as my Microsoft account which is my only account it will show me a message that says: "Oh no! Something went wrong, and we couldn't connect to Minecraft Services" and the Play button is replaced with a Play offline button but once I click that to play offline, it will say I need to make a profile even though I have a profile and have been playing the game until this error occurred. But once I click to create a profile, it will sign me into the Minecraft website and bring me to my account profile screen where it will give me the message: "Something went wrong... press reload to try again." and once I click reload, nothing changes. this error happened on Friday, May 28th.

I found the link to the installer in the Mojang's purchase email. Hope that helps.

2022-02-12T16:01:44+00:00 My launcher started working again this morning. No change on my end, I suspect they fixed whatever encryption problem they were having with authentication to the minecraft servers.
Yep, my launcher log ( "%APPDATA%.minecraft\launcher_log.txt" on my machine ) is clean. I don't see those SSL/TLS errors anymore. In the future, if anyone needs to see a cleaner log for troubleshooting, you can always deleted that file and re-start the launcher and it will regenerate with new logs.
I'm definitely keeping MultiMC in my back pocket for any future issues!
