I bought minecraft, but It says "open" but doesn't open when launched

Hi! I'm Rostom, an Independent Advisor. I will be glad to help you here.

Didn't you see the Bedrock Edition on your Minecraft Launcher?

Please manually search for Minecraft for Windows on your Microsoft Store. If it's not yet downloaded, please download it. Also, sign in your account to the Xbox app installed on your PC.

Thanks for the response but I am able to see the game in my library but whenever I open it, it says "launching game" and then it just closes with no error message and doesn't end up actually opening the game

its still not working it says iam joined but when i open it says pending and then i try to open minecraft and iam still in the same version

Hello Tiago Dumé,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble opening Minecraft Java on your PC. This issue may be caused by a corrupted or outdated Java installation, or by a conflict with another program that uses Java. To help you resolve this issue, I would like to ask you a few questions:



- What version of Windows are you using?

- Did you download Minecraft Java from the official website or from another source?

- Do you have any antivirus or firewall software that could be blocking Minecraft or JNA?

- Have you tried running Minecraft as an administrator or in compatibility mode?

Here are some steps you can try to fix it:

- Make sure you have the latest Windows version installed.

- Run the Minecraft Launcher as an administrator. To do this, right-click on the launcher icon and select "Run as administrator".

- Check if there are any other programs that use Java running in the background, such as web browsers, antivirus software, or VPN clients. Close them and try launching Minecraft again.

- If none of the above steps work, you may need to reinstall the game and delete the .minecraft folder from your PC. This will remove all your game settings and mods, so make sure you back up your saves and screenshots before doing this. To delete the .minecraft folder, follow these steps:

- Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box. - Type %appdata% and press Enter.

- Find and delete the .minecraft folder.

- Reinstall the game
