minecraft Bedrock Edition wont install in the minecraft launcher

Hello Georgina, my name is Zahir.

I would assume you are trying to download on a windows pc.

You will have to install the minecraft launcher first.

To play Minecraft: Java Edition, download and install the correct launcher for your operating system. Sign into the Launcher using your Microsoft account, and you will be able to run Java Edition.

To play Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, you will need a device running Windows 10 or 11 to download and install the newest version of the Launcher, within which you can launch and play Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Sign into the Launcher using your Microsoft account, and you will be able to run Minecraft: Bedrock Edition.

Thank you for the information. Are you trying to install the Minecraft Java Edition or the Minecraft Bedrock Edition?

If you're trying to install the Bedrock Edition, try to install the game itself without using the Launcher. Simply search Minecraft for Windows on Xbox app or Microsoft Store.

You could as well try to install the Launcher from the web here https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download

Hello,

Just to be clear you're having installation issues with the Minecraft Launcher, not any of the Minecraft Products such as Java edition, Bedrock Edition or Minecraft Dungeons?

Thanks,

Hi Tina Nguyen2,

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Community. We're sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your Minecraft purchase.

Minecraft has two main editions: Java and Bedrock. They have some differences in graphics, content, mods and cross-play. You can learn more about them here Minecraft Java or Bedrock Edition | Minecraft.

To use Minecraft Java and Bedrock, install Minecraft Launcher from MS store or Minecraft website. Then on the launcher, install Java package/update and do the same with bedrock edition.

If you still can’t access the Java edition, you may need to reach out to Mojang support for further assistance.

Kind regards,

Lavenia

Minecraft Launcher is the same thing as Minecraft Java! I have issue with Minecraft: Bedrock Edition (Not JAVA EDITION). Do you understand this?
When i installed Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on my laptop from Microsoft Store it has the latest version but when i installed Minecraft: Bedrock Edition at another device (PC) from Microsoft store it stuck on 1.17.10 version and don't updating to 1.17.41 version. This is Microsoft Store's problem, it doesn't updating my Minecraft to the last version on my PC.

P.S PC and laptop has Windows 10.
