I can't play Minecraft using the same Microsoft account I have always played Minecraft...

Hello, sorry for the late reply.

As you said I somehow created another Microsoft account with the same email adress like the previous one that I used to play Minecraft and other games with.

I logged in with my Microsoft account in to the Minecraft website. I logged in with the same email adress, but I had different account name than I used to play Minecraft with and it shows me I don't have Minecraft. That is the issue I think, that I cannot log in to the previous account because it somehow overwrote it.

Hi, my name is Marvina and I will be happy to help you.

I'm sorry you have this problem, researching on the internet I was able to find that in the forum, the independent advisor Gerardo, recommends the following steps for a solution.

As long as you log into the Microsoft Store, Xbox App, and Minecraft Launcher (the latter is free since it's just a Launcher) with the same Microsoft account that originally purchased the game, it should let you use the game, regardless of the PC you want to play it on. .

First of all, please verify that your game purchase appears as completed through your account's order history (modify the time filter so that all purchases appear):

https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders/

If everything appears in order in the link that I shared with you previously, then please try synchronizing the licenses of your account using the following procedure:

1. Sign out of both the Microsoft Store and the Xbox app and Minecraft Launcher.

2. Perform a reset of the Xbox app, Microsoft Store, and Minecraft Launcher.

- Press the Windows + I keys on your keyboard to open Windows settings and click on "Applications".

- Find the application called "Xbox" and select it, then click on "Advanced Options" and then on "Reset" and confirm the process, do the same for the application called "Microsoft Store" and for "Minecraft Launcher".

3. Restart your PC.

4. Sign back into the Xbox app, the Microsoft Store, and the Minecraft Launcher. Make sure you do it with the same account and that they are not different.

Likewise, check that you are logging into the correct Microsoft account that originally purchased the game as there is a possibility that you are using a different one.

Why i can't play using my Microsoft account on my minecraft pocket edition

Hi I have the exact same problem where my Xbox account name says one thing and says I have paid for Minecraft but when I click on th manage profile button it takes me to a different Minecraft account where is says that I do not have Minecraft java edition and so can't play it. The only reason I was able to play on that pc was because it automatically signed me in when I sign in on another device using the email address used for my Minecraft account it takes me to the profile without Minecraft on it.

Hi there,

just to be sure you used the same Microsoft Account for the signup for Minecraft Earth as the one you use to play Minecraft with?
