You may wish to create a custom OAuth application to remove the reference to "SKCraft Launcher"

Creating a custom OAuth application

1. Read Microsoft's quick-start guide. Note that you want to make an app for "Mobile and desktop applications" - you set this in the dropdown next to the redirect URI.
2. Navigate to the Authentication tab on the left of the app's management page, and add a new redirect URI to http://localhost:

3. Scroll down and ensure the required features are enabled:

• Personal Microsoft accounts only
• Live SDK support: yes
• Allow public client flows: yes

4. Put the client ID of your new app in launcher.properties
5. Test the login process; you will have to authorize the new app!
