    It says I have to rebuy minecraft after I already own it?

    Hi Khrizzle!

    When and where exactly did you buy your copy of Minecraft Bedrock Edition?

    If you used your Microsoft account to purchase it, please verify the ownership of the game from your account by checking your order history here https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders. It should show the game order as completed.

    Be sure to sign in the same account on your Xbox app and Microsoft Store. You may sign out and sign in again to be sure.

    If that didn't work, try to repair and reset your game, Xbox app, and Microsoft Store.
    Repair/Reset apps - https://support.microsoft.com/windows/repair-ap...

    Don't forget to check for Windows updates and get all available updates from the Microsoft Store:

    I have to rebuy Minecraft despite owning it?

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

    You do not need to buy it again, rest assured. An offer just went live two days ago for a Minecraft Java + Minecraft for Windows bundle and some users are reporting the same issue as you. It will probably take up to tomorrow night for things to sync.

    I would suggest you to wait until tomorrow. But in the meantime, try to download the Windows 7/8 launcher. Try playing the game using it.

    https://minecraft.net/download

    Make sure you sign in with the correct Microsoft Account used for the Migration.

    You can also try to go to the Microsoft Store and redeem the Minecraft Java + Minecraft for Windows bundle. If you own Minecraft Java you are eligible for the offer.

    If you have any question or need further assistance, please let me know.
