Hi there!
'Minecraft for Windows' is not available in older version of Launcher (Unified).
Please download new version of Launcher that can be found or either on minecraft.net website (https://launcher.mojang.com/download/MinecraftInstaller.exe) as well as in Microsoft Store.
Remember to sign in with your Microsoft account in the new Launcher, Microsoft store and Xbox app.
Hope that this will resolve your issue.
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.
