minecraft does not run

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Zsaei

This can be a bit dumb, but do you have installed and updated Java on your PC?

If yes, please delete Java from your PC. Then try and double check this:

Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update

Click Check for Updates

Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too. (Click on get updates)

Now, install the Minecraft launcher using the Xbox app, install Java again and try again (make sure to install Java 32 and 64 bits)

I did all the steps and nothing else I can do, but I tried to download minecraft for windows 10 and 7

Hello Josef, may I know how to disable the protections and features temporarily on window defender ? Thanks alot, I'm having the same problem as well.

That's really odd..
May i know if you have an antivirus, system optimizer or similar?
If yes, please disable all the protections and features temporarily and try again (if you have windows defender do the same there)

Hi Josef,

I followed the steps you gave me and it seemed to have gotten rid of the java runtime error however I am now encountering numerous errors such as;
