Minecrafft Error Code 0x80004005
I just randomly opened Minecraft in hope to play and have a good time and then I saw that it didn't open to the menu where it shows play instead showing my account and I clicked to log in and then this message pop up in the top right corner and it just keeps on showing up, I restarted my mac and then I reinstalled the game and I tried everything I could but can't seem to fix it. It says something about Windows needing to be up to date but I'm on mac. Can anyone help?

In minecraft, i got logged out, and whenever i press "microsoft login," it takes a second, opens up xbox, says i get error 0x80004005, and when i press "okay" to go back, i get the message (on the launcher) "Error Code: 0x80004005 code: Eroded Badlands. A file that the Windows Product Activation (WPA) requires is damaged or missing. Please reboot, verify system permissions, and make sure your operating system is up-to-date. For more information, go HERE or contact Customer Support directly." I also have found other mentions of this error or similar errors, on the links MCL-21182, https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/tfx9kx/error_code_eroded_badlands/?rdt=51307, MCL-23524, MCL-23179, MCL-22586, MCL-23830, and https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/tlpsr1/error_codecreeper_while_logging_in/.
I don't really know how to end this paragraph now.
