Hi, I hope you're doing great out there.

I'm an Independent advisor and I'm here to help you with your concern.

If I understand correctly, you bought Minecraft for Windows and used another PC, now you are on another PC, and you want to know if you need to buy the game again.

You can connect the same account Microsoft, that you bought Minecraft on your new computer, and download Minecraft from the Xbox app or Microsoft Store. Now, if you want to play from another account Microsoft, you'll have to buy it again.

Let me know if you have any questions. I'll be happy to clarify it. Hugs!

Hello!

My name is Dérek, I'm an independent platform consultant and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help you.

Mehrdad, Each platform you will need to purchase the game separately, without any connection between platforms.

I look forward to any further queries.

You have to pay on every platform you want to use it on. 99% of software works like this.

Hello Debbie,my name is Oskayra, I will be happy to help you in any way possible.

I am very sorry for what you are going through, doing a search on the internet I found that the independent advisor Jeisson E. has a solution, I will leave him his information so that he can find out about the solution.

It is likely that you have not lost it, since when you try to download or run it from the Microsoft store you are trying to run the Windows Version of Minecraft and NOT the JAVA version, which is the one from Mojang and Mojang servers.

You would have to follow the support options and guides for the JAVA version to solve the problem, and most likely you will only have to reinstall the game from the Mojang website, not from the Microsoft website or the Microsoft Store (Not XBOX either) .

(Minecraft's official support is only in English. If you have problems following the information, I recommend using your browser's automatic translator)
