Hi,

I mistakenly purchased for my child the minecraft's windows 10 version and I would to know if its possible to change to Minecraft's Java edition version.

thanks very much for helping me.

Windows 10 minecraft and java edition are both two different types of Editions unfortunately you would have to buy the java edition on the minecraft website.

Hello ! I'm Aymeric, an independent advisor, and I'm here to help !

Changing the email address associated with your Minecraft Java Edition account will not affect your game data, as all progress and purchases are linked to your account, not the email itself.

Please let me know if you have any other question !

Okay so you cannot purchase Java through Microsoft. You can only purchase (for now) Java edition through Mojang.com as is described here: How to Purchase Minecraft: Java Edition. Microsoft only sells the Windows 10 edition in our online stores and apps.

Do you have the confirmation email for your purchase of Java edition? (Do not post here, only confirm or deny).

Thanks,

The code was definitely for PC, it was listed as "Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition for PC" in the gift notification email
