 +**Regardless of AltManager settings, it is not possible to use Wurst without owning a licensed copy of Minecraft Java Edition.** Wurst is a cheat client, not a pirate client. The cracked alts feature merely gives owners of Minecraft Java Edition the ability to change their name on offline-mode servers.

 Premium alts are regular Minecraft accounts, purchased from Minecraft.net. These accounts can only be used if the password is known. They can also be used on any Minecraft server unless they are banned or excluded from the server's whitelist. Premium alts are regular Minecraft accounts, purchased from Minecraft.net.

-Cracked alts, on the other hand, are just usernames. These alts don't have passwords and they might not even exist as real Minecraft accounts.

 When a premium alt is added to AltManager, Wurst doesn't check immediately if the password is correct. Instead, it will first mark the alt as "unchecked" and wait until the user attempts to login with the alt. If the user logs in successfully, the label is changed to "checked" to remind the user later that this alt has worked previously. If the login fails, the screen flashes red and the "unchecked" status remains until a successful login occurs or the user decides to delete the broken alt. When a premium alt is added to AltManager, Wurst doesn't check immediately if the password is correct.

-In the past, Mojang's servers used to "shadowban" any IP address that tried to login too often and too quickly. When an IP was shadowbanned, any login attempt from that IP would result in a "wrong password" message, even if the password was entered correctly. At one point, as little as two failed logins in quick succession were enough to trigger a shadowban. +
