How to install minecraft in PC?

Hi David,

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm Mason, an Xbox Ambassador, and a Microsoft user like you. Hopefully I can help with your question.

If you are looking at downloading the Bedrock version of Minecraft, you should open the Windows store on your PC, search Minecraft, and there you will be able to purchase and download it directly.

If you are looking at downloading the Java version of Minecraft, you should go here: Download Minecraft: Find Redownloading Options | Minecraft - you will be able to purchase and download too.

Hope that helps!

Hi David, I hope you're doing great despite the issue you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

Depending on Minecraft that you wanted. If you're looking for Minecraft Java Edition you need to download the Minecraft Launcher which you will see the Java Edition and if you're looking for Minecraft for Windows, you can immediately install the game through Xbox App or Microsoft Store App.

Hey. I know that it’s not officially but there is a way through Xbox Insiders and installing Minecraft: Preview. That’s how most do it, but you need a PC to help install the Texture pack. I was wondering if there is a way to do it without a PC.

I have purchased Minecraft on Xbox. I would like to insta

ll it on my Win 10 PC too. When I go to The Minecraft page and click "Install on my devices". It does not list my Win 10 PC as a device to install Minecraft. I can see Xbox as a device to install Minecraft. I have also confirmed that the account logged in
from the PC is same as the one used for Xbox Minecraft purchase.

I assume if I purchase a game for Xbox and available for PC can be used on PC also.

Thanks,

Ganesh

I just got a new pc so I'm trying to download Minecraft again. It says I downloaded the Minecraft installer, but I do not have Minecraft itself installed.
