  1. I can play Minecraft Bedrock Edition on an account that doesn't have it on the store


    On one of my Microsoft accounts, Bedrock Edition is fully available, but Java is not redeemable because the same account's Microsoft store does not see that the account owns Minecraft. I'm not entirely sure what's going on with it. The launcher says that Java should be available, but when I sign in the full price shows up. I'm not sure if this account being one that I logged into with my Nintendo Switch's copy of Minecraft would help but I thought I'd mention it.

    :)

    Minecraft Java Redeeming

    I have this exact issue. I own the Minecraft Bedrock edition (for windows 10), and can install and play it through the minecraft launcher. I get the message in the launcher that I'm eligible for the Java edition, and click to try to redeem it, which takes me here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/minecraft-java-bedrock-edition-for-pc/9nxp44l49shj I sign in to my Microsoft account on the web, and it still says "Buy" rather than "Get" and there's no option to change things.

    I've tried uninstalling all minecraft stuff, resetting my windows store and xbox app accounts, and restarting the computer. I can reinstall minecraft just fine and still play the Bedrock Edition, but the Java edition remains unavailable.

    I've the same problem, except I've 3 accounts and 3 kids that are wanting to play Java, the launcher shows and plays Bedrock fine, but is prompting me to buy Java when I click on redeem.

    Hope you're doing great today Denial

    If you're regarding to the recent minecraft promotion, to be elegible you need to have one of the two editions purchased directly on PC
    Only the PC version of Java or Bedrock makes you elegible

    Minecraft: java and bedrock edition bundle doesn't let me install bedrock edition.

    So, I have found the reason why I cannot redeem the bundle, and that is because the account I own bedrock on, I initially bought the game through the Google Play Store in 2016, and back then it was Minecraft Pocket Edition, which then converted to a Microsoft Account when Bedrock was released. Because I didn't buy the game through the Microsoft Store on that account, the system doesn't recognise me as purchasing Bedrock Edition on the Microsoft store servers, and I am unable to redeem the promotion.

    I have already made it clear that the system needs to be updated to make bedrock versions bought from different stores consistent.

    Here is my Minecraft bug report page about the issue: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCL-21740

    Minecraft Windows 10 Edition is not updating to new versions on my PC.

    Minecraft Launcher is the same thing as Minecraft Java! I have issue with Minecraft: Bedrock Edition (Not JAVA EDITION). Do you understand this?
    When i installed Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on my laptop from Microsoft Store it has the latest version but when i installed Minecraft: Bedrock Edition at another device (PC) from Microsoft store it stuck on 1.17.10 version and don't updating to 1.17.41 version. This is Microsoft Store's problem, it doesn't updating my Minecraft to the last version on my PC.

    P.S PC and laptop has Windows 10.
