Why can't I use the Minecraft Marketplace on my Switch?

Hello Lilah,

I'm an Independent Advisor. Let me help you with your concern today. Please note that this is a public forum, I will be responding to you in short period of time and I apologize for a delay in response. As I am merely a user trying to provide insight and information that may be helpful.

I understand your concern. What happens when you try to access Minecraft Marketplace, do you get any error message? I see you have already tried a lot of troubleshooting steps, how about reinstalling the game on your Switch? Have you tried that one? If not, please do try that. But please make sure to backup your saved data to cloud first. Please follow the steps below to backup your saved data on Switch:

1. Open the game's software menu and select Save Data Cloud Backup.

2. Select the desired user, then select Back Up Save Data.

The page appears to provide accurate and safe information, but be cautious of ads on the site that may advertise products often classified as PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Products). Make sure to thoroughly research any product before downloading or installing it.

If the same issue will persist despite reinstalling the game, you might need to contact Minecraft support so they can provide information on what is causing the issue on your Marketplace. https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/request/new...

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any more questions or concerns about this.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

You may need to clear the cache of the marketplace by following the steps below:

"Setting > Storage and hitting the "Clear Marketplace Cache" button.

You will not lose any offers you already purchased but they may need to be downloaded again."

Also, in regards to your concern, the issue can be with your console or in-game, and as an additional help, I got you this link: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/games-apps/...

Hey Spencer!

Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, an Independent Advisor. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. I am here to help.

Kindly try to perform the following troubleshooting steps:

Following installation, we recommend that you restart your device so that the latest updates can take effect.

Device Drivers:

For the best game performance, make sure your system’s video card drivers (or display adapter drivers) are up to date. Drivers are available on the support website for your computer manufacturer, or if your computer system is custom built, on the video card manufacturer’s support website. Updating video card drivers can resolve game crashes, improve frame rates, and improve overall game performance.

In My Library, select the game title.

Select the More options (…) button and choose Manage.

Select Files and then Check for updates.
