Authentication servers is nothing we control and therefore nothing we can answer.

Those are Mojangs servers.

If it never works for you, then you might have used a cracked launcher that puts false records in your host file on your machine, clear that out.

c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

You can open that in notepad, and if there's any line that states "mojang" something, then you need to open the file as administrator/elevated and remove those lines, and then save the file.

After that it should work.
 
do i have to delete this
"authserver.mojang.com"
"sessionserver.mojang.com"

Yes - if you have those in your host file, then you've used a hacked / cracked launcher before.

First - don't use cracked launchers!

Second - I really recommend you to change your password for your Mojang/Minecraft account.
 
I used the twitch minecraft launcher.. like when u click play on a modpack it brings up the launcher.. and I still have those authserver and sessionserver

I cant afford a real minecraft account

Honestly I think that's BS, if you can afford a computer and being online - then you can afford Minecraft.

And even if the case would be that you "can't afford" - then don't play Minecraft, what you're doing now is stealing - and that's never OK, regardless of not being able to afford something.
