it says play minecraft demo when i open my minecraft launcher and it uses my xbox account...

I open the minecraft launcher, log into my account, and then doesn’t let me play minecraft, i can use the minecraft launcher in the xbox app using gamepass, but cannot play minecraft

For me it opens up the Launcher recognizing my minecraft name but for the Java version (which I previously owned under Majong) it says I can PLAY DEMO. For the Minecraft for Windows it says I can PLAY TRIAL. But I already own Minecraft.

I did I used the same email but when it brings me to the launcher it has a different username and says play demo because that account doesn't own minecraft it uses my xbox/microsoft account instead of my mojang account and when I try to change to my mojang account it says "Something went wrong in the log in process."

Thanks Francia J.

I did as you suggested. When I use the newly installed launcher (for WIndows 7/8) I can logon with my Microsoft account but it then says that Minecraft is 'incompatible with Launcher'.

When I try to open Minecraft without the launcher, I still get the 'Renew Gold' message.

Best,

i bought minecraft bedrock edition and i was suppose to get java edition for free but on the launcher it says play demo edition and on xbox it says i own the game, when i click the game it says get launcher when i already had it and it jus looped around and said play demo. I spent 2 hours of my lifetime trying to fix this and now i think i got ptsd ;/
