    I have 2 same Microsoft accounts available on Minecraft launcher.


    Hello, today I wanted to play Minecraft with my friend, but I couldn't log in to my account, so I followed steps that were posted on some microsoft discussion. When I logged off my Microsoft account from my PC and changed to local account I restarted the PC and then logged in my Microsoft account with the same email and it wanted to create a new account, so I did it but as it seems it someway overwrited the old account with the same email that i created the new account and I started my Minecraft launcher, but it wanted me to buy Minecraft, again.

    :)

    I have 2 same Microsoft accounts available on Minecraft launcher.

    Hello, Morpyx2288. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    So you created another account on the Minecraft launcher using the exact same email address and password from the Microsoft account you were using to play Minecraft?

    Would you please try to sign in to the Minecraft website (https://minecraft.net/) using your Microsoft account and see if it shows there that you still own the Minecraft edition(s) that you purchased?

    Waiting for your reply.

    I have 2 same Microsoft accounts available on Minecraft launcher.

    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.

    Minecraft

    1. Open Minecraft Launcher

    2. Delete all accounts that are in the launcher

    3. In the launcher log in with the email and password of the Microsoft account you used to migrate

    I’ve just bought Minecraft and everything is on the same account, however it says I need to buy it again. I’ve tried everything but nothing is working.

    Hi Skye,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I understand that you are still prompted that you have to buy the game, even if you already purchased Minecraft.

    As part of our initial troubleshooting, kindly make sure that you are logged in using the same Microsoft account where you purchased the game. If you purchased it from Microsoft store, you may check it by going to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    If Minecraft does not show on your order history even after selecting "All available" from the ordered within drop down, this means that Minecraft was purchased in a different account.

    Once confirmed that you are using the correct account, please follow my recommendations below.

    If you play Java edition:

    1. Delete the Minecraft launcher that exists on your computer.

    2. Restart your computer.

    3. Install legacy Minecraft launcher for Windows.

    https://aka.ms/minecraftClientWindows

    Once reinstalled, continue with these instructions.

    1. Open Minecraft launcher.

    2. If you are already logged in, click on your image and Gamer tag in the upper left corner of the screen and then on "Logout".

    3. After logging out, delete all accounts registered in the launcher by clicking on the "X" next to each account.

    4. In the Minecraft launcher, enter the Microsoft email and password.

    If you play Bedrock edition, you have to go to Microsoft Store>My Library then look for Minecraft and install.

    Make sure you're signed into the Store app with the same Microsoft account that you used to buy the game.

    If the above steps did not work, please clear the cache of the Microsoft store. Go to Settings> System> Apps & features> Click Store> Advanced options> Reset.

    After the reset, log in with the Microsoft account that has Minecraft Java and reinstall Launcher.

    Hope this solves your issue, please do let me know how it goes.

    Regards,

    Alvaro
