    After Mojang to Microsoft account migration I can no longer play Minecraft.


    I need help accessing Minecraft through my Microsoft account. After migrating the Minecraft account (bought with a Hotmail email address) to a Microsoft account, I can't play the game anymore. The same Hotmail email address is also linked to an Xbox account. Now, when I open the launcher, in the top left where it previously had the Minecraft username, it displays the Xbox Gamertag, and the only option is "play demo," as if this Hotmail account does not own a copy of Minecraft. How can I get access to the game again?

    :)

    Account Recovery/Migration

    Hello Wayne Lau1,



    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    Mojang accounts were migrated for a period of time with the aim of moving all players' Minecraft accounts under Microsoft accounts. This migration process involved transferring data and game information related to Mojang accounts to the new Microsoft account system. During the migration, players will receive detailed instructions and steps on how to perform the migration via email. This means that during the migration process, players only need to follow the guidelines to seamlessly transfer their Minecraft game progress, purchase history, and other account information to their Microsoft account.



    However, with the passage of time, the deadline for Minecraft account migration has ended and new Mojang account migration requests are no longer being accepted. In other words, you will no longer be able to log in to Minecraft using your old Mojang account. all players must access and log in to Minecraft through their Microsoft account. as a result of this change, any players who have not completed the account migration will no longer be able to continue to play with their original Mojang account.



    In order to continue playing, you will need to log in to Minecraft with a Microsoft account, and if you don't already have a Microsoft account, you can easily create one and associate it with your Minecraft game. Note that the only way to purchase Minecraft is through a Microsoft account, so if you wish to repurchase or continue using Minecraft, it is recommended that you purchase and use a Microsoft account to play the game.



    To summarize, with the migration process complete, Microsoft accounts are now the only way to log in to Minecraft. We recommend creating and using a Microsoft account to purchase and log into Minecraft as soon as possible.



    You can also contact the support staff of the corresponding game to find out why.



    Best regards

    2 mojang accounts migrated to one Microsoft account

    I already wrote to Mojang support and this is what they answered me:

    Microsoft account does not have minecraft anymore.

    Originally I bought the game with a mojang account (This was back in 2016 I think)

    I then changed the email for the mojang account.

    then with the migration, I migrated it to my current microsoft account that is not related to any of the previous emails.

    The migration was successful and I was able to play game.

    I stopped playing for a while, but after trying to log in with the same microsoft account that worked previously, minecraft was not there anymore.

    Since I bought it with a mojang account, there is no record of a purchase/transaction.

    Migrated Mojang account to Microsoft account issue.

    Yes, the migration completed successfully. It showed me the confirmation message and everything. My skin is even transported to the Microsoft account, and I can log in with it both in Mojang site (It no longer lets me log in with the Mojang account, only with Microsoft account), and the launcher. But it says I don't own Minecraft java Edition, and only lets me play demo.

    How do i migrate my Mojang minecraft Account after the migration window is over? I cant find any way to contact the support on a chat or Ticket level.

    How am I supposed to Migrate my account if I already have a Microsoft account. Can I not just have two accounts on the same profile.

    Also Mojang said the this to me.

    Thank you for contacting us for help with your Java Edition account.
