Does anyone know what is going on with the #Minecraft Launcher? Everytime I hit play it is always 'waiting on install'... Like shouldn't it just do this once until an update is released? Is is supposed to be like this? I don't get it... @MojangSupport

I've been getting the same lately. Everytime I start up Java via the launcher.
