Minecraft launcher immediately crashes upon opening it on OS X 10.11
Expected
-The launcher opens with no problem
What actually happens
-The launcher almost instantly crashes upon opening, gives no output
I have seen this happen to other 10.11 users, it's not just me.
Please don't ask me to update my OS, my Macbook is too old to update.
This never used to happen. This glitch appears to have occurred in a newer launcher version.
Environment
Macbook Pro running OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan
