Minecraft bedrock on my laptop isn't working, the game loads but then closes

oddinator19 · May 24, 2023

I changed out the hard drive on my laptop,I replaced original HDD with an SSD, I redownload Minecraft but now I can't play it. I can start up the game and it would go to the loading screen, but then it closes when finished loading.

It even does the same when I try loading from the Minecraft launcher.

My laptop runs the lastest Win10 version. Could this be due to my SSD?

I did a new install of windows, because, there were some other problems that I didn't want to copy over.

The current issue is with Minecraft only, some steps I took to resolve this was to update the launcher, but, that didn't fix it.

Sorry for replying so late, yes I installed windows with USB stick, I tried your suggestion to install Minecraft from windows store and that fixed my issue, thank you

Hello, thanks for the information. So, this new installation was made using a USB stick, correct?

Meanwhile, please check if your system and all the apps are up to date.
You can check for windows updates via PC Settings > Update & Security > Windows update > click on get updates
And you can check for app updates opening the Microsoft store

If all your system is up to date, please try each possible solution below:

1. Try downloading Minecraft via their website or using the Xbox app in case you downloaded the launcher from the Microsoft store.

2. Open task manager and go to the startup tab, once there click "disable" on each app listed there
After that Restart the PC and see if the problem is solved

3. Do a clean boot in your Windows PC. For that please follow this article

Hello Oddinator19, this is Manuela!. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you ready to assist with this.

I'm sorry to hear you're not able to play Minecraft properly after you changed the internal drive.

May I know if you cloned Windows from the HDD to the SSD or how do you installed Windows?

Meanwhile tell me, is this happening with more games of just Minecraft and its launcher?
And what procedures you tried to fix this?

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.
