I try to launch Minecraft bedrock it opens, but it won’t work

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues launching Minecraft Bedrock.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please update graphics drivers. Make sure that your graphics drivers are up-to-date because outdated drivers can cause compatibility issues.

And then adjust graphics settings. To do this, go to your Windows graphics settings and set Minecraft to use "High Performance" mode. This can help if the issue is related to your GPU.

Next is to run in compatibility mode. Right-click on the Minecraft launcher, select "Properties," go to the "Compatibility" tab, and choose an earlier version of Windows.

Then disable fullscreen optimization. In the same "Compatibility" tab, check the box for "Disable fullscreen optimizations."

If the issue persist after performing the troubleshooting steps, kindly uninstall and reinstall the game to make sure all files are intact. This will delete the corrupted files from the game.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with Minecraft Bedrock not launching.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please end task in task manager. To do this, press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. Locate Minecraft (Bedrock Edition) in the list. Right-click it and select End Task. Restart the launcher and try again.

And then run Minecraft as administrator because permissions issues might be preventing it from launching properly.

Right-click the Minecraft Launcher shortcut. Select Run as Administrator.

Launch Minecraft Bedrock again.

Next is to reset the Minecraft Launcher going to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps. Find Minecraft Launcher, click the three dots (⋮), and select Advanced Options. Scroll down and click Reset.

Restart your PC and launch Minecraft again.

Then check for Windows updates because an outdated system files might cause game launch issues. Please go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update. Click Check for Updates and install any pending updates.

After that is to verify and repair Minecraft. To do this, open the Microsoft Store.

Go to Library > Installed Apps. Find Minecraft Bedrock Edition, click Manage > Verify and Repair Files.

Wait for the repair process to complete, then launch the game once again.

If Discord detects Minecraft running but it won’t show, possible that other apps might be interfering. Close unnecessary applications before launching Minecraft.

Kindly disable Discord overlays by going to Discord Settings > Game Overlay and turn it off.

Once done performing the troubleshooting steps and still the issue persist, please uninstall Minecraft. Redownload and install Minecraft Bedrock from Minecraft.net: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Thank you for the update!

I suggest signing out of the Xbox app and signing back in before trying the launch the game again. If that doesn't work, then signing out of the Minecraft launcher and signing back in before trying to launch the game.

Also, can you verify which version of Minecraft you are playing? Is it Java or Bedrock?

If you're playing Java, you can try downloading the alternative download from the Minecraft website here: Minecraft Alternative Downloads | Minecraft. Uninstall your current launcher before installing the new one and launching it.

Thank You,

hello

that worked, but i can only play minecraft java with it. With other 3rd party apps(like curseforge for java, and bedrocklauncher for bedrock, both dont pirate minecraft) i managed to launch java and bedrock, but couldnt log into bedrock. When i play java, i always use curseforge, because i have a modpack with shaders and stuff like that, and for java i dont need to log in via xbox to play online. The problem is that i cannot log into bedrock, not even with other accounts.

Thank you so much for responding! I actually had that going as my workaround for Java and launched Bedrock directly, but once the new

version of Minecraft came out Bedrock stopped launching.

I did just try to remove the new launcher, reset the windows store, and install the Windows 7/8 one again, but I'm still getting the error message.
