    Minecraft download on second pc

    Hi Chris, thanks for the response.

    When signing into the store it doesn't recognise that I have already bought and owned the title. It asks me to buy it.

    Regards,

    Problems with getting java edition due to family settings

    You don't need to buy the bundle if you already own Minecraft for Windows PC.

    If it's asking you to buy the bundle it means that the license for the game is not detected by the system.

    Can you please sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders and check if you can see the transaction for the game Minecraft for Windows PC.

    How do I START Fallout 4?

    Now, when I put the disc in, I am asked ''do you own this game'' before being directed to the Xbox store to BUY IT! This is really the worst gaming experience I have ever had, not only can I not play the game, Microsoft as asking me to buy a game I have
    already bought.

    Thanks for the replies chaps but I guess its time to pack up the Xbox one and try to get a refund, playing a game shouldn't take over 24 and then ask you to buy something you already bought, I have signed into my friends Xbox one and it works perfectly,
    with the disc so it isn't that.

    Sigh.....waste of time.

    Can Not Sign Into Games on Windows 8

    When I try to log in through the game it requests to access my xbox live information. I hit yes and it goes straight to the game menu with a message asking me to sign in. When I check xbox games on my laptop I'm signed in but through the game I'm not.
