Assuming that the internal cooling fan was working properly, it may be as simple as a failed magnetron thermal cutout.
I don't have an exploded view on this one, and the supplier's part list is not detailed properly, so you would have to remove the magnetron thermal cutout and look for the numbers on it, either 145 or 150.
See:

Then here would be the part numbers:
RTHM-A080WRE0 Thermal Cut Out 145 Degree c
RTHM-A085WRE0 Thermal Cut-out 150'C
You can order parts from Encompass here or you can call them toll-free at 866-779-5835.
You should also check the 20A ceramic fuse. Fuses can be had locally in most
grocery stores, hardware stores, home improvement centers, and big box
or department stores.

SOURCE: SET TIMER FOR 20 MINUTES FOR BAKED POTATOE.. CAME
That was a very long duration to have set for potatoes. It would have made the magnetron burnt by exeeding the limit and findinf there was no conductive medium by moisture , it has ended up burning the magnetron.
First of all clean up the inside and clean up the point of the magnetron beam.Now confirm on the inside to be totally dry.
Disconnect power and check inside for break of fuse to the magnetron.If the microwave does not heat on testing with a cup of water , then it is possible that the magnetron is cooked.
Confirm the cost for the unit to decide on replacement.
Hope this helps.
