Hi!

The games are solely linked to the account used for purchase, but content sharing on Windows 10 / Xbox can be used. You can follow these simple

instructions.

You can't transfer the license to another account. Sorry.

so i got my minecraft java edition in 2014 and i had heard you could redeem it for windows 10 edition so thats what i did. used some random microsoft account played it and left after a little while. fast forward
to now i want to use the minecraft windows 10 edition. so i remembered i had already redeemed it and i found the old account logged onto it with my new computer and tried to get it but i wasnt able to, i was only able to download the trial. and when i press
on the sign in button it only reffers me to buying minecraft instead of logging into my microsoft account. bottom line i need help.

you would need to call in to support. but you cant transfer games across accounts

I am not an expert, and I have the same problem. I first bought the "Minecraft: Java Edition", I wanted to use the redeem code to get "Minecraft for Windows 10", so I clicked "Redeem", I got the code, but when I entered it, it said "The code has already
been redeemed.", I checked my order history, it said that I had bought "Minecraft for Windows 10" using the code, but when I clicked install, it keeps showing me a small window with my code. I then checked whether if the account/email on Mojang, Minecraft.net,
and Microsoft Store, it was the same. So I don't get why I can't install "Minecraft for Window 10".

No, I get that, I've got all my accounts linked up.

I'm logged in as my account (dad), and have my 2 sons accounts linked up.

I can redeem the Ultimate onto my account obviously, but I don't want to do that, i'm trying to add it to my childs account.
