You need to go to the minecraft server. You can register in this way on all servers in the Minecraft world. Server on the local network

This article introduces the reader to the features of a clean (without modifications) server Minecraft the current version. Unlike the client, it is distributed free of charge through the official website of the game. The information in this article has been updated to be consistent with version 1.12.2.

Preparation for work

For the server to work, you need to install the Java package on your PC. It can be downloaded from this page. But if the client Minecraft is launched, this is an indicator that this package is already installed on the computer. (Minecraft can now be installed via an installer that downloads Java for itself. In this case, you still need to install Java.)

In order to download the server, you need to go to the download page of the official website. Click on the appropriate link and save the file in a separate directory, which will be the main one for your server. When creating a server on Linux or OS X, the main directory of the server is the working directory; use the command cd / path / to / server /.

Server creation and configuration

Introducing Server Settings

When the downloaded file is in the future server folder, run it and wait for the level generation process to finish. You will see that several new files and subfolders have appeared in your folder.

Consider the file server.properties... This file contains all the main parameters of the server. Open this file with any adequate text editor. You will see content similar to this:

#Minecraft server properties #Thu Jul 07 16:45:52 MSK 2016 generator-settings = op-permission-level = 4 allow-nether = true level-name = world enable-query = false allow-flight = false announce-player- achievements = true server-port = 25565 max-world-size = 29999984 level-type = DEFAULT enable-rcon = false force-gamemode = false level-seed = server-ip = network-compression-threshold = 256 max-build-height = 256 spawn-npcs = true white-list = false spawn-animals = true snooper-enabled = true hardcore = false resource-pack-sha1 = online-mode = true resource-pack = pvp = true broadcast-console-to-ops = true difficulty = 1 enable-command-block = false player-idle-timeout = 0 gamemode = 0 max-players = 20 max-tick-time = 60000 spawn-monsters = true view-distance = 10 generate-structures = true motd = A Minecraft Server

Description of parameters

Parameter	The values	Default	Description
allow-flight	true / false	true	Allows the player to fly around the Minecraft world. This option only affects flights in Survival and has an effect only if there is a corresponding plug-in (for example, Flight). Flights in Creative mode are not affected in any way.
allow-nether	true / false	true	This parameter determines the ability to go to the Lower World. If disabled, all players in the Nether will be moved to the normal one. Does not affect the transition to the Edge.
announce-player-achievements	true / false	true	This parameter determines whether the server should send messages about receiving achievements to the chat.
difficulty	Number (0-3)	0	Difficulty level: 0 - Peaceful 1 - Easy 2 - Normal 3 - Hard
enable-command-block	true / false	false	Allows the use of a command block. This option is not generated on the first boot, but appears on the first attempt to use the command block.
enable-query	true / false	false	Allows you to activate the GameSpy4 protocol for listening to the server (getting information about the server).
enable-rcon	true / false	false	Allows you to use remote access to the server console.
force-gamemode	true / false	false	If true, then when connecting to the server, the player's game mode will change to the standard specified in gamemode.
gamemode	Number (0-3)	0	Standard game mode, automatically set to all players who log into the server for the first time. The individual player mode is changed with the / gamemode command. 0 - Survival 1 - Creativity 2 - Adventure 3 - Observation
generator-settings	No	Line	This line defines the template for generating the superflat world. See superplane for details.
generate-structures	true / false	true	Whether to generate structures (treasuries, fortresses, villages ...)
hardcore	true / false	false	Enables Hardcore mode on the server. After death - switch to observer mode.
level-name	Folder name	world	The name of the folder with the map files that the server will use during the game. This folder is located in the same directory as the server. If it does not appear, the server will automatically generate a new world and place its files in a folder with this name.
level-seed	Any acceptable grain		Input data (grain) for the level generator. If you want to create a random world - leave this field blank.
level-type	DEFAULT / FLAT / LARGEBIOMES / AMPLIFIED	DEFAULT	Defines the type of the world.
max-build-height	Multiples of 16 (64 - 256)	256	Specifies the maximum building height on your server. Above this level, you will not be able to break or place blocks. Terrain can be generated above this level, you can also destroy blocks with TNT and fire. In addition, buckets work above the border (error).
max-players	Number (0-2147483647)	20	Specifies the maximum number of players allowed on the server.
motd	String no more than 60 characters	A Minecraft Server	The description of the server that is displayed on connection in the server list. Supports text formatting.
online-mode	true / false	true	This parameter allows you to enable / disable the authentication of premium user accounts that connect to this server. If false- the program will not check player accounts and players whose accounts do not have the "premium account" status will be able to enter the server. If the parameter value true, only users with a premium account will be able to access the server. If account verification is disabled, "pirates" and players who have forged a nickname will be able to enter this server, which is somewhat unsafe. The administrator who creates the server in this mode does not violate the terms of the user agreement, since this option was added to the list of configurable server parameters on purpose - by disabling verification, you can, for example, play on a local network without access to the Internet.
op-permission-level	Number (1-4)	3	Allows you to change operator rights. 1 - Operators can break / place blocks within the protection radius of the spawn area. 2 - Operators can use the commands / clear, / difficulty, / effect, / gamemode, / gamerule, / give, /, and can change command blocks. 3 - Operators can use the / ban, / deop, / kick, and / commands. 4 - Operators can use the / stop command.
player-idle-timeout	Number	0	If not set to zero, then players will be automatically disconnected from the server if they have not done anything for the specified time (in minutes).
pvp	true / false		Enables / disables receiving damage to players from attacks of other players on the server. At true players will be able to "fight" among themselves, killing each other. If the value is set false, players will not be able to deal direct damage to one another.
query.port	Number (1-65535)	25565	Port for receiving information about the server. Appears automatically when enable-query = true.
rcon.password	Line	No	Password for remote access to the server. Appears automatically when enable-rcon = true.
rcon.port	Number (1-65535)	25575	Port for remote control of the server. Appears automatically when enable-rcon = true.
resource-pack	File name	No	The location of the resources that the server will offer to download to the player upon connection. In this field you need to specify direct link to the zip archive.
server-ip	Any valid IP address	No	Specifies the IP address of the server that will be used by other players to connect to this server. It is recommended to leave this field blank, but if you want to give the server a special IP address, you can use this parameter to set it.
server-port	Number (1-65535)	25565	This parameter determines the value of the port in the TCP and UDP protocols that will be used by the game server. Standard for Minecraft port - 25565. It is recommended not to change the value, because to enter a server using a standard port, the player will only need to enter the IP or DNS address without specifying the port, and when using other ports, there is a possibility that this port will already be occupied by another network resource. If you still want to specify the port manually, choose larger numbers and avoid the popular ports: 80 and 8080 (web server), 21 (ftp server), 22 (ssh server), 143 (imap), 6969 and 6881-6889 (bittorrent) etc. For example, port 23000 will do.
snooper-enabled	true / false	true	Allows the server to send some statistics and data to the developers.
spawn-animals	true / false	true	Likewise spawn-monsters but for friendly mobs (cows, pigs, sheep ...).
spawn-monsters	true / false	true	If the parameter value true, then, as in the single player game, at night and in dark caves on the map hostile mobs will appear and will try to harm the players on the server. If the value false, hostile mobs (for example, skeletons, zombies) will not automatically spawn during the game, however they can be spawned using spawn eggs. All mobs on the map will remain.
spawn-npcs	true / false	true	Allow NPCs to appear in villages.
spawn-protection	Number (1-100)	16	The radius of protection of the territory of the spawn in blocks (this territory can only be changed by operators). Radius 0 gives protection to a single block, 1 - 3 × 3 zones, and so on. This option is not generated on first boot, but appears when the first player logs into the server. After 1.4.2, spawn protection is automatically disabled if the server has no operators.
view-distance	Number (3-15)	10	Adjusts the radius of the updated chunks to be sent to the player. Reference: draw range Far in versions up to 1.7 displays an area within a radius of 10 chunks.
white-list	true / false	false	Allows you to enable / disable the use of the whitelist on the server. At true the server administrator will need to manually add player nicknames to the whitelist. If set to false, any player will be able to log into this server, knowing its IP address and port. Server administrators have the ability to log into the server regardless of the whitelist.
max-world-size	Number (1-29999984)	29999984	Sets the border of the world at the selected radius, starting from the zero coordinate. Setting a border outside the world will do nothing. For example If you specify a radius of 1000 blocks, then you get a workspace of 2000 x 2000 blocks. If you specify a radius of 4000 blocks, then you get a workspace of 8000 x 8000 blocks.
network-compression-threshold	Number	256	By default it allows packets that are n-1 bytes big to go normally, but a packet that n bytes or more will be compressed down. So, lower number means more compression but compressing small amounts of bytes might actually end up with a larger result than what went in. -1 - disable compression entirely 0 - compress everything Note: The Ethernet spec requires that packets less than 64 bytes become padded to 64 bytes. Thus, setting a value lower than 64 may not be beneficial. It is also not recommended to exceed the MTU, typically 1500 bytes.
resource-pack-sha1	Line	blank	Optional SHA-1 digest of the resource pack, in lowercase hexadecimal. It "s recommended to specify this. This is not yet used to verify the integrity of the resource pack, but improves the effectiveness and reliability of caching.
use-native-transport	true / false	true	Linux server performance improvements: optimized packet sending / receiving on Linux true- Enabled. Enable Linux packet sending / receiving optimization false- Disabled. Disable Linux packet sending / receiving optimization
max-tick-time	Number (0 - (2 ^ 63 - 1))	60000	The maximum number of milliseconds a single tick may take before the server watchdog stops the server with the message, A single server tick took 60.00 seconds (should be max 0.05); Considering it to be crashed, server will forcibly shutdown. Once this criteria is met, it calls System.exit (1). -1 - disable watchdog entirely (this disable option was added in 14w32a)
broadcast-console-to-ops	true / false	true	Send messages to the chat about using op-commands, such as give or gamemode. true- send false- do not send

The first line "#Minecraft server properties" is required for the server to determine that this is the actual server.properties file that it will use at the moment.

The second line "#Thu Jul 07 16:45:52 MSK 2016" describes the date when this file was last modified by the server. It is important to remember that the server takes the date and time set by the operating system.

"#" <Первые три буквы дня недели на английском языке> <Первые три буквы месяца на английском языке> <Число> <Время ЧЧ:ММ:СС> <Часовой пояс> <Год>

Immediately before starting the game on the server, you can configure the above server parameters.

Field server-ip it is best to leave it blank - the game itself will determine and configure this parameter. But if you want to assign a special IP address to the server, you can change this parameter.
Field gamemode indicates the game mode, which will be automatically enabled for all players logged into the server. The game mode for a specific player can be changed during operation.
If you have included white-list, make yourself an operator or add yourself to the whitelist.
When filling in the field max-build-height with an unsuitable number, the server automatically selects the closest possible number to use.

Any change to the settings in this file requires a server restart. In addition, the server can sometimes write changes to this file, so it is best to reconfigure when the server is offline.

Setting up a connection to the server

It is worth noting that players from both the local network and the Internet can play on the server at the same time.

Connect to your own server

If you keep the server on the same computer on which you are going to play, you just need to enter the address 127.0.0.1 or localhost to connect. This address uses a virtual network interface (loopback), which is always available, even if the computer does not have a network card.

If you cannot connect even through the loopback interface, this is a reason to check your antivirus and firewall settings. Add to exclusions Minecraft Server and port 25565.

Server on the local network

The process of setting up a game server over a local network is much easier than making it accessible from the Internet, and easier in terms of errors when connecting to the server.

In addition, your address may be permanent, static, or change every time you reconnect to the provider, that is, be dynamic... The easiest way to determine the type of address is to reconnect the modem and compare the external IP addresses. If after reconnecting the modem the IP address has changed, it means that you have a dynamic IP address. Dynamic addresses are more common than static ones, but it is recommended to have a static IP address when creating a game server, as the dynamic address changes every time you reconnect to your ISP (and you will have to constantly communicate the new address to your players). However, a static address is not a prerequisite for the server to work.

In addition, there are services (including free ones) that provide third-level domains, for example, dyn.com/dns/. Updating the address is usually done using a special program that you will need to install on your computer, but some modems and routers can perform this function themselves (look in the router interface for Dynamic DNS). Many ISPs offer static IP as an add-on service.

Server connection

To connect to your server, players in the line of entering the server IP address in the game client must enter your external IP address or domain (site address) and click the button to connect to the server. The external IP address can be found out by the owner of the server and told to players who want to connect to his server. The following sites can help you find out your external IP address: SpeedTest.net, 2IP.ru, Smart-IP.net.

If players are unable to connect to your server, see the section.

Server over VPN

If you have problems with internal IP address, you can try Hamachi, P2PLauncher, EasyVPN, Garena or similar services. The most popular of these is Hamachi. The creator of the server and those connecting must download and install Hamachi. Further:

For the server:

Create a room.
leave server-ip empty.
Start the server.
Report your IP in Hamachi (next to the connect button) to the connecting.

For players:

Enter the server room.
Try to connect using the received IP.

The easiest to use is P2PLauncher, which connects computers via a peer-to-peer network. Just place it in your game folder and run it. On server:

Enter the nickname (aka the future name of the server) and the name of the room, click "Start Server".
Give the name of the room and your nickname to the one who wants to join you.

On the client:

Launch P2PLauncher. Enter your nickname and room name, click "Launch client".
Use the nickname of the player who created the server as the server name.

Port opening

Opening, or port forwarding (Port forwarding) allows clients connecting from the Internet to access a server behind a router or modem. The problem with opening ports is common when creating a server on a local subnet. The router or modem may be blocking the port that the game server is trying to use. This procedure is slightly different for different models.

There are 2 ways to open ports:

An assembly of special software is presented on the portforward.com site, which is designed to open ports on various models of modems. Go to this site and find the model of your modem or router in the list. Go to the page of your model and download the utility for opening ports from there. Use it to open the port that your server is using (by default 25565 ).
Access the web interface of your modem or router through a web browser. As a rule, to enter it, in the line of entering the web address you need to enter 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 ... Once you are in the web interface menu, find the item Port forwarding or NAT... After opening this menu, you will need to enter some parameters. Parameters that may be required: Start Port - 25565, End Port - 25565, IP adress - the local IP address of the computer on which you are creating the server (for example, 192.168.1.2), Protocol - first enter TCP, and then repeat the whole procedure again for UDP. Examples of port opening for many modem models can be found at portforward.com.

An example of using the PFPortChecker program

To check if the port opening procedure was successful, ask someone outside your local network to connect to the server using an external IP address (you can also try to connect to yourself using an external address yourself, but failure in this case does not always mean that the server is unavailable) ... Alternatively, download and install the PFPortChecker software. In field Port enter the port number you tried to open. In field Protocol select UDP first and then TCP. Then press the test button. After completing the check, the program will display 3 totals for TCP and 3 for UDP. If the text of all 6 test results is green, then the procedure was completely successful. See the screenshot on the right for an example.

Server administration

This section describes the elements of server administration - the process of managing and maintaining the correct operation of the server while it is running using the command line and graphical interface elements.

GUI Description

The server window GUI consists of the following elements:

Information window. This window displays information about the amount of used RAM, is dynamically plotting the used amount of RAM, etc.
List of players. This window displays a list of nicknames of all players who are connected to the server.
Log and chat. It displays information about the state of the server, errors, the result of operations, the use of commands by players to control the server, etc. All messages sent by players to the chat are also displayed here. All information that is in the log window is automatically written to a file server.log located in the same directory as the server.
Command line. This panel is the most important part of the GUI. From there, the administrator can administer the server: add to the whitelist, ban, give players items or operator permissions (see below), save the map, stop the server, etc.

Console mode

In the console, or nogui, mode, only the log and command line are present. They perform the same functions as the corresponding graphics mode windows.

You can run only the .jar version of the server in console mode ( minecraft_server.jar). To do this, you need to specify the nogui parameter in the launch command:

Java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui

Description of available commands

The teams in the game are divided into two groups: for operators and players. With their help, you can get access to some useful features, and operators can monitor the state of the server.

FAQ

Q: Players cannot destroy blocks, everything broken is returned back. How to fix it?
A: There is a protected area near the spawn point, in which blocks can only be placed and destroyed by server operators. That is, players just need to move away exactly as many blocks in any direction as it costs in spawn-protection in the server's configuration file.

Q: The message “Can’t keep up!” Appears in the server log all the time. Is server overloaded or system time changed? " What does it mean?
A: This means that the server is overloaded at the moment and its work may not be completely correct. You can reduce the load on the server by closing all third-party programs, thereby reducing the load on the processor and freeing up additional RAM. You can try restarting the server. Server speed is highly dependent on the number of players playing on it.

Q: Players complain that the server lags terribly. How do I fix this?
A: The Internet connection speed may be insufficient, or the computer hardware is too weak. Try to minimize the use of Internet traffic (close Internet browsers, torrent clients, etc.) and reduce the load on the use of computer resources. Add Minecraft_Server.exe to the list of exclusions of your firewall / antivirus, and best of all, turn them off. Try restarting the server. Ask players who are lagging to reconnect to the server - possibly a client-side lag problem.

Q: Players cannot connect to my server. What to do?
A: First, try to connect to it yourself, using as the server IP address localhost... If you fail to connect, the server has been created completely incorrectly. You may have made a mistake while configuring the file server.properties, or your antivirus is aggressively blocking the game server. If you were able to connect to your own server, check if you have correctly identified your own IP address. You may have forgotten to open the ports used by the game server. Check the server log for errors - they can point you to the cause of the problem.

Q: When connected, players receive the message "Outdated server!" / "Outdated client!"
A: Server and client must be the same version, check this carefully.

Q: I want to run my map from a single player game on the server. How can I do it?
A: From folder saves, which is located in the directory of the installed game ( .minecraft), transfer the folder with your map (for example, New World) to the folder where the game server is located. Don't forget to change level-name in file server.properties if your folder is named differently from the current server folder. The transfer should be carried out with the server turned off.

Q: How can I create a new world?
A: Delete all files from your server world folder or specify a new world name in the parameter level-name in file server.properties.

Q: I want to update the server. What is needed for this?
A: Make a backup first - if something goes wrong, you can restore the server from a backup. Then re-download the server executable file from the official website and replace your old one with it. Then start the server - all settings, maps and players should be saved.

Q: How do I add functions to the server / home / warp / spawn other?
A: Look in the Bukkit plugins. For example, there is a large CommandBook plugin.

Q: When creating a server, a message appears in the log: “FAILED TO BIND TO PORT. Perhaps a server is already running on that port? " What to do?
A: This means that the port that the server is using is already occupied, or access to it is closed. Disable your antivirus and firewall programs that use the Internet. Probably, you specified a port used by another program (for example, a web server or a torrent client) or you forgot to open ports on your modem / router before starting to create a server. To find out how to do it, see the last section of this article.

Q: A message appears in the server log: "% username% lost connection: End of stream". What should I do?
A: This problem can sometimes happen on the Windows XP SP3 operating system. Try running the server in a virtual machine (eg VirtualBox) or change the operating system.

Q: When starting the server, I get the error that my Java version is out of date. How do I know which Java version I have?
A: The game requires Java 8. To check your version, do the following:

Open command prompt (console, terminal):
- Windows: -> cmd ->
- Linux: the placement in the menu differs depending on the shell, usually Applications -> System / Standard -> Terminal
- OS X: In the Dock or Finder: Programs -> Utilities -> Terminal
At the command prompt, type java -version and press Enter
Find the line starting with java version in your answer. The number below is the Java version.

If in response you receive a message like this:

Java is not an internal or external command, executable program or batch file (Windows) bash: java: command not found (Linux & OS X)

then this means that Java is not installed or the environment variables are not configured (the latter is usually only for Windows). Try the following:

Right click on My Computer
Click on Properties
Click on Advanced System Options
Click on Environment Variables
In the list of system variables, find the Path variable
Click Edit and add to the end:;% ProgramFiles (x86)% \ Java \ jre6 \ bin
Reopen Command Prompt and try again

If your version is lower than 1.6.1 or you do not have Java installed, go to the Java download page and download the latest version.

Q: I have a dynamic IP! And buy a static address for the server Minecraft’A don’t want to ...
A: Using services like DynDNS or No-IP, you can get a static third level domain (myminecraft.dyndns.org, serverminecraft.zapto.org ...)

Instructions

If you are near a server running a Linux operating system and the desktop is already displayed on its screen, end the current session first. How it ends depends on which GUI is running. For example, if it is KDE, click on the button with the letter K and a cogwheel, then select "End Session" from the menu that appears and click the "End Current Session" button. Then, in the fields that appear, enter the username root and the password for this user. A new desktop will appear and you will be able to run programs and run programs as administrator.

On a Windows server, do the same, but after logging out, press Ctrl-Alt-Del. Login and password fields will appear only after that. Also note that the root user on this OS is not called root, but "Administrator".

On a Linux-based server, if there is no graphics subsystem on it, first log off someone else's current session (if it is open) with the logout command. Then enter the username root followed by the password for the root user. You can do the same in the GUI by running any terminal emulator such as rxvt, xterm, or Konsole, but instead of using the logout command, you will have to enter login. Now, all commands in this terminal window will be executed as the root user (you can even run programs that use graphics on his behalf), while the desktop will remain the same.

Never connect to the server remotely via Telnet. If the SSH (text) or VNC (graphical) protocol is used, enter the login and password in the corresponding fields of the client program. After that, the login under the appropriate name will occur automatically. The server settings must have permission to connect using the appropriate protocols.

You can also log in as an administrator to the server web interface. In this case, you will not get access to all the functions of the machine, but only to all the functions of the "engine" of the forum, website, etc. To do this, go to the site using a browser, and then click on the "Login" link. Enter your administrator login and password. If we are talking about an online store, the "Login" link for additional security on the home page may not be present. Find out its address from the documentation for the "engine".

Regardless of how you logged on to the server as an administrator, be sure to log out after completing the steps you want to take. To do this, enter the logout command in the text interface, logout in the graphical interface, as described above, and in the web interface, click the Logout link.

Many players get bored of exploring the world of Minecraft alone, and they begin to wonder how to enter the online Minecraft game and continue playing with the fun company of other players. We offer you tips on how to enter online Minecraft, what you need to do for this and how to deal with possible connection errors.

Server selection

For the game to work correctly, you need to download the latest version of Java and DirectX. Before entering the Minecraft server, you need to select it. Here are some criteria you can use to guide you:

the number of players on the server. There should be no less than thirty people playing on the server, but no more than a hundred, since with such a number of players, the ping will greatly increase. This can cause a disconnection, since the information from the server will arrive slower than it is necessary for the normal course of the game process. In addition, you will have to look for an undeveloped place for the construction of your structures for quite a long time.
teleportation points. The server must have a large number of "warps" (teleportation points). With their help, players can move to cities or other public places.
administration. The lively participation of the administration in the life of the server is one of the main components of a comfortable gameplay.
also pay attention to the presence of a kickstarter (a set of items in the inventory with which the character appears in the game). If it is absent, then there is a high probability that you will not even have time to choose a suitable territory for building a house before nightfall, and you will have to fight the mobs with your bare hands.
taking measures to counter griffins. Unfortunately, griffing is very common in multiplayer games. Therefore, before starting the game on the server, carefully read the forum, and in particular - the rules of behavior of the players. On those servers where there is no ban for griffing, it will flourish, and you can easily be attacked and lose your buildings and property.

How to enter online Minecraft

Register on the server website. When creating an account, be sure to indicate a valid email address, as later there may be problems with confirmation of registration.
Download and launcher (downloader program).
Start the launcher, enter the data specified during registration on the site (login and password), select the required server from the list and download the game client. There are several versions of the client, you need to choose the one that matches your operating system.
Enter the game.
Click on the "Multiplayer" button.
Enter the IP address of the server and click the Connect button.

Errors and their elimination

Bad Login, User not Premium - only players with a licensed version of the game are allowed to enter. To login from the pirated version, change the online-mode value to false in the server.properties file.
Connection reset, connection refused - The connection was reset by the server. It means that you have problems with the Internet, or the server you are logging on to is unavailable.
Read time out - the response timed out. Check your internet connection.
Logged in from another location - another player entered the server under your nickname.
Internal Server Error - server error.
Outdated Client - Your client version is out of date. Update the client.
Outdated Server - Your client version is higher than the server version. Roll back the client.

Recently, we have increasingly begun to receive questions from players about how to enter the server in minecraft. It is for this reason that it was decided to create this article to explain all the nuances of this issue. We will tell you what software you need to play, how to download the required version, and what to do if you cannot move after entering the server.

First, let's define what you need to play:

Latest Java version installed on your computer
Launcher with autoloading versions
Know the version of the game and the address to connect
Come up with a login for the game
Register on the server and be able to log in to the servers

We will tell you about each point in more detail:

Why do I need JAVA to play minecraft and what is it?

Java is the programming language in which Minecraft games are written. This language is special in that to run applications, a specific program is required on the computer, called JRM - java runtime machine, which converts the minecraft code into what you see on your screens. It is necessary to use the latest version of Java, which is not difficult to find on the Internet, so that you get a good, fast and secure game client.

Where can I get a launcher for minecraft with autoloading versions?
