    I bought Minecraft and can only play the demo version.


    I bought Minecraft for my son and he’s stuck in the demo version. I’ve gone over many forums and tried the different things that various people have tried and it hasn’t worked.

    After migrating Mojang account to Microsoft, it is gone

    I am logging into Minecraft Java Edition with the Microsoft account that I migrated my Mojang account to, and instead of being a full/paid version of Minecraft, it is only offering me to play the Minecraft "demo" version.

    Only can play a demo version when i bought the game

    Hi Xabierminteguia, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    Is this the Minecraft Java Edition? If yes, kindly check the information below to fix it.

    1. Please double-check you are logging in to the same Microsoft account you used to migrate your Mojang account.

    2. Make sure you are not logging in with your Mojang account. Migrated accounts will only be able to log in with your Microsoft account.

    Kindly sign out your account on Minecraft Launcher then restart your PC before signing back in. Make sure to choose "Microsoft Login" and make sure that it's the correct account where you have successfully migrated your Mojang account.

    Playing downloaded demo version of Minecraft

    hello jwashington1

    I don't see why you can't. the full version of Minecraft lets you play 2-4 player local co-op. but if you try to play the demo version of Minecraft and it doesn't let you play with more then 1 controller then Minecraft blocks the 2-4
    player local co-op on the demo version.

    Can only access the demo version of Minecraft

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

    Just a friendly reminder though that the license of Minecraft on a different device is different from the one that is on PC but let's check.

    May I ask where did you friend purchased the game? Is this through Google playstore?
