You are welcome, and sorry about this. If you need anything else, please let me know.

Hello, lincplaysgames. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

Minecraft Bedrock edition is sold separately and exclusively for each platfom. So if you purchased Minecraft Bedrock for mobile, you have the game license to play only on mobile. If you want to play on the computer, you would need to purchase the computer license for the game. Sorry about this and I hope you understand.

Feel free to ask back any questions.

I have a similar problem recently bedrock and java are getting sold together and from what I have read if you own a version of either one you now get the one you don't have for free. for eg. you own bedrock = you get java free for the platform you own it on.
So my issue is I own bedrock for pc but the java version is still stuck on demo mode the worst thing is I can't contact anyone from the Microsoft store directly to get this sorted out :/ I really don't want to buy the game again on the same platform have 2 copies to then have to buy it again on another platform.
and in response to the first question you answered I feel like Microsoft is taking advantage of people by double and triple dipping forcing people to buy the game over and over again for different platforms i mean if you have paid for it once you should own it end of argument

Oh well. Thank you so much anyway, you were a great help.
