    Can't play minecraft bedrock despite already owning it


    I bought Minecraft java in 2013, and bought Bedrock edition in 2014. I've never been able to access my bedrock account, and decided to try via the new launcher. I get a prompt to buy bedrock, which I have clicked, but it brings up a message saying that I already own the game. However the launcher does not give me the option to actually play the game, instead just offering me a trial. How can i get access to my account back? I have no information of my bedrock account except that its tied to my java account.

    On my microsoft store:

    Minecraft java on the launcher:

    Minecraft bedrock on the launcher:

    Message which pops up when I click buy now:

    Can't play minecraft bedrock despite already owning it [​IMG]


    When I click close, the launcher remains the same, only giving the option to play a trial version of the game.

    Question:

    How do I get my Bedrock edition account back?

    :)

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Becca576

    Please try and double check this:

    But first uninstall the current minecraft launcher.

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update
    Click Check for Updates

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too. (Click on get updates)

    Now, sign out from your account on both Xbox app and Microsoft Store and do this:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then reset

    Then do the same for the Xbox app:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then reset

    Finally do this:

    Step 1: Open the Run window by pressing Windows + R key.

    Step 2: Input WSReset.exe in the Run window and click OK.

    Step 3: Then a command prompt window will appear. After a few seconds, Windows Store will open.

    Sign in again on both Microsoft store and Xbox app with your account
    install minecraft launcher from the Xbox app and try again

    Need to purchase Minecraft Bedrock Edition despite already owning it.

    Hi Ricardo,

    I no longer have access to the email that was used for this. Is there any other way of attaining the code? Perhaps with the original Java code being used to identify the Bedrock code?

    Edit: I have found the old email but it says there is nothing that has been redeemed since all purchase history.

    Thanks.

    Need to purchase Minecraft Bedrock Edition despite already owning it.

    Yes, that means was on a different email like I explained, and you need to find that account

    Need to purchase Minecraft Bedrock Edition despite already owning it.

    Hi Hajrah! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    When you redeemed the code this was added to the email you used to redeem, if this doesn't appear in the order history of this email means that wasn't in this email, it's necessary to use the email that redeemed the code to play the game, the account migration doesn't affect this.

    Need to purchase Minecraft Bedrock Edition despite already owning it.

    Hi Ricardo,

    I have checked once again and there is nothing there whatsoever, so unless I redeemed it on an entirely different email then I do not know. I am just confused as a year ago today I had played Bedrock edition and everything functioned as normal.
