Hi 4mlevvy!

Thanks for reaching Microsoft Community. We're here to help and let's work on this together.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your Minecraft founder's cape. One possible reason for this issue is that the founder's cape may have been removed from your account due to a violation of the Minecraft End User License Agreement (EULA). Another possible reason is that there may be a syncing issue between your Microsoft account and your Minecraft account.

To resolve this issue, I recommend that you try the following steps:

1. Check your Minecraft account settings to see if the founder's cape is still listed as one of your owned capes. If it is not, then it may have been removed from your account.

2. If the founders cape is still listed as one of your owned capes, try logging out of your Minecraft account and then logging back in. This may help to refresh the syncing between your Microsoft account and your Minecraft account.

3. If the issue persists, you can contact Minecraft support for further assistance. They may be able to help you recover your founder's cape or provide more information about why it may have been removed from your account.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Greetings,

RodelioP.

Hi TheEpicGod3273! My name is Stephanie and I'm more than happy to help you out!

According to Minecraft's official site: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-103568

"For those still affected by the bug, did you own the Founder's Cape? If you did not own the Founder's Cape and could only use it due to MCPE-84673, then this works as intended. Only players who downloaded the Founder's Cape skin pack during Minecon 2019 should have the option to use the cape.

If you have it already, proceed to the next steps:

-Own the "Founder's Cape" skin pack
-Go to the "Capes" tab in the character creator"

Should you need to contact Minecraft support, I provided you the link below:

Kind regards,
