Are you able to reach the host?

If you don't know how to check and assuming you're using Windows:
  1. Press keys: Windows+R (for Run dialogue)
  2. Enter the command: cmd
  3. Run this in terminal: tracert cdn.mmoui.com
  4. And also: tracert api.mmoui.com
This command tries to show the route your request takes to reach the Minion server.

If it does not complete, then the issue could be:
  1. you might be getting denied by Cloudflare (for instance if using a blacklisted VPN Server)
  2. your hosts file/DNS server is redirecting you to some other page
  3. your firewall is blocking the server
  4. some Problem with Java not having access to your network adapter
If I were you I would try to rule out the Firewall first:

Does your Firewall have a "Gamemode" or something like "Allow all for 5 min"? That way you could test if it even is a Firewall issue. Just disabling the Firewall sometimes blocks even more, for safety reasons.

If you can exclude the Firewall a look at the Minion log might be interesting:

Log is in
Code:
%HOMEPATH%\.minion
or open Minion, go to Settings, scroll down until you see "Event Log" and press the button "Open Log"
  1. Best delete the log first, so you get a fresh one
  2. then start Minion
  3. let it show its error
  4. close it again
  5. inspect you log or upload it here for us to check
