  1. Bought Minecraft a year ago and now it says I didn't


    I bought Java Edition Minecraft, I have the confirmation code emails and all to prove it. However it now says I do not own the game as well as the Installer has a problem with a file that I can not access. I have already migrated and even played on this migrated account, however now it says I cannot play. I have reinstalled the launcher and installer multiple times but the error continues.

    :)

    Hi, Keyan. My name is Ron, I'm an independent advisor. I will be more than happy to help you.

    Let's try logging out from the Minecraft launcher first, then log in with your new Microsoft account, please don't use your old Mojang account login details. You will need to click the "Go back" button on the login screen then click "Add account" and then choose "Microsoft login."

    If that doesn't work, please try using the other version of the launcher which you can download from this link, https://aka.ms/minecraftClientWindows

    I bought Minecraft years ago, and now it says I don't own it.

    Hi Tyler, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    Please, open the Microsoft Store on your computer.

    Then, click on Library > Games.

    On the far right corner, click on the drop-down menu and uncheck "Show only installed Apps".

    I hope this helps.

    I bought a game about a year ago and now it says I haven't bought it.

    Hi, No sorry, I bought the game on PC, not Xbox, but in the Xbox app on my computer, in my profile, there is progress for the game.

    Hello Kili Ghillie, I hope everything is going well!

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

    I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

    After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

    First, please select System > Settings > account > remove accounts and then select your account and select Remove to confirm.

    Then, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2-3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

    If the issue persists, please select System > Settings > devices and streaming > blue ray > persistent storage > clear three times > restart console.

    If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose Reset and keep my games and apps

    I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

    Kind Regards

    Stay safe, and happy gaming!
