  1. Minecraft account migration has dropped my ownership of Java Edition. How to get it recognized?


    I migrated my Mojang account to a Microsoft account near the start of October. All emails indicate a full successful transfer to the correct account, yet my Microsoft/Xbox account will only let me play the demo, and has for more than a month. I have my transaction ID from 2013 proving I bought Minecraft, but it's prompting me to buy it again.

    Logging in with my Mojang account redirects me to log in with Microsoft. My Microsoft account did not get its copy of Minecraft. As it stands, I'm unable to play a game I've played for 8 years. I'd have taken this directly to support if I could find a way to contact them. Are they out there?

    (Curiously, the Xbox account automatically adopted the last in-game name I had before my current one- I was goldenrodseason last year, then changed to microsat5 earlier this year before migration, but the Xbox account is named goldenrodseason)

    :)

    I had the same problem and tried the same solutions which also didn't work. I then tried to migrate again and figured out that I didn't complete it the first time. Then i tried the solutions again and redownloading the launcher worked.

    I had the same problem. In my case, I just logged on minecraft.net then on the Xbox account on the client and everything works fine.

    Hi there Microsat welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Have you tried these instructions?

    If you have any other Launcher on your computer other than the one found on Mojang's official website you must first do the following:

    1 - Delete the Launchers that exist on your computer that are not official Mojang;

    2 - Restart your computer;

    3 - Download the original software again and install:

    https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download

    If you don't have another Launcher on your computer or have already deleted:

    1 - Open Minecraft Laucher;

    2 - If you are already logged in, click on your image and Gamertag in the upper left corner of the screen and then on "Logout";

    3 - If you are already logged out or not logged in to your account, delete all accounts registered in Launcher by clicking on the "X" next to each account;

    4 - In Minecraft Launcher, enter the email and password of your Microsoft account!

    I tried your first set of instructions and it did not work. I also tried the entire process but with the launcher downloaded from Microsoft Store, and that did not work either. Both installations only showed the Play Demo button.
