    Do I need to buy minecraft again after missing the migration?


    I was not aware of the supposed migration from mojang accounts to microsoft accounts. After trying to play minecraft it says my account has been disabled, so my only thought is that i will have to buy minecraft again. Or is there a way to sort this out?

    :)

    Do I need to buy minecraft again after missing the migration?

    Hi there! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    It's important to note that this is a public user-to-user community forum, and none of us here work for Microsoft.

    You can try to check the follow the post-migration process here in this link:

    https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/19615552270221

    If you are unable to follow the procedure and cannot log in with your Mojang account to initiate the process, you will need to contact Mojang Support for assistance using the following link:

    It is important to select "Migration Support" as the question category and specify in the details section that you cannot begin the migration process because you cannot log in with your Mojang account on the Minecraft website. They manage those accounts before the migration, and only they will be able to assist you.

    Best Regards,

    Need to buy Minecraft again after migration?

    Is this a question? If you have to buy it again, it's probably more like $27.90 than $279. You shouldn't have to buy it again. The problem I encountered is that the Windows 10 edition of Minecraft was not able to connect to the Internet for some reason. Because it could not connect to the Internet, the account I purchased could not be associated with my login credentials. The solution for me, was to download and use the Windows 7/8 launcher instead of the Windows 10 launcher. For whatever reason, that version of the launcher was able to connect to the Internet, and therefore to verify and associate my previously purchased account.

    Need to buy Minecraft again after migration?

    Yes. Download the Windows 7/8 launcher, instead of the Windows 10 launcher. Then it will be able to connect to the Internet.

    Need to buy Minecraft again after migration?

    Did you find anything or somehow fixed it beacuse i have the same problem and i dont know what should i do. Its been a week since i migrated but nothing has helped me so far, for the most people its either the problem has fixed itself somehow and they were able to play or there isnt written a solution at all.

    Need to buy Minecraft again after migration?

    For me it opens up the Launcher recognizing my minecraft name but for the Java version (which I previously owned under Majong) it says I can PLAY DEMO. For the Minecraft for Windows it says I can PLAY TRIAL. But I already own Minecraft.
