No crashes yet! I'm confident the problem's been fixed. I applaud your competence and I thank you dearly for your help.

I made sure the minecraft launcher was the only thing open also uninstalled a few things. It worked, will test to see if forge crashes now, thank you for your help.

The only other programs that were open were discord, chrome, and maybe files.

Yes. I just tried again to make sure and the problem continues.

The launcher gives me this error message "unable to save download[. es_ar].json" no matter what version I try to launch. The text in brackets varies but it everything else is consistently in each error message, I have tried restarted my PC.

I'll try that, thank you!

I didn't use any mods, just the forge.

I have already confirmed that it is forge causing the problems and not the mods, and I got forge from this website.
