    Can't play Minecraft on new laptop


    I had bought Minecraft on an old laptop, but recently got a new one and tried to play Minecraft on it. I went to the Minecraft page, downloaded the installer, and tried to install it, figuring I'd have to log into my Microsoft account (I've migrated) in the launcher. However, it told me I had to log into the Microsoft store, and I was like "ok I guess that makes sense too" so I did that, on the account that has Minecraft, but it still doesn't work and tells me the same thing.

    :)

    Can't play Minecraft on new laptop

    Hi, 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.

    If I may ask, what Minecraft version you're trying to play? Is it Minecraft Java Editin or Minecraft for Windows?

    I have minecraft digitally downloaded for xbox and I want to play it on Windows 10

    You can't, because unfortunately, Minecraft is not an Xbox Play anywhere game. If you want to play it on your laptop you need to pay for the PC version.

    Hello! How can I gift a game, which I've already installed on my computer?

    Thanks. It's a pity. Because daughter played Minecraft before on my computer and now she has a laptop and Minecraft for me was just a waste of money. I wanted to transfer Minecraft to her laptop.
