HMCL Login Error: ForbiddenOperationException: Token does not exist

What it looks like in the log

org.jackhuang.hmcl.auth.yggdrasil.RemoteAuthenticationException: ForbiddenOperationException: Token does not exist

How to fix it

  1. Open HMCL and click on your profile in the Accounts menu on the left sidebar.
  2. Remove the affected account from your saved accounts list.
  3. If you play on an official Minecraft account, add a new account using the Microsoft Account option instead of legacy Mojang login.
  4. If you use a third-party Authlib-Injector skin server (such as LittleSkin or Blessing Skin), re-add the account and enter your credentials to generate a fresh token.
  5. Update HMCL to the latest release if you are running an older version (such as 3.3.x) that still defaults to legacy Mojang authentication.
