Minecraft Java Authentication for Microsoft accounts

Hello, Nicole!

As of now, it seems that the ability to transfer a Minecraft account from one Microsoft account to another is not directly supported. This is likely due to security reasons and to prevent misuse of accounts.

However, Mojang Studios has been transitioning Minecraft Java Edition players from Mojang accounts to Microsoft accounts. This move is aimed at improving safety and security in the Java Edition of the game. After moving, Java players will get several new features such as increased account security with two-factor authentication, single account login for all PC-based Minecraft games, and improved parental controls.

If you’re facing issues with your account or need further assistance, I recommend reaching out to Mojang Support for more detailed guidance.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi, Tyme my name is Oskayra, and will be a pleasure help you

No, you cannot directly transfer your Minecraft Java account to a different Microsoft account. Each Minecraft Java account is associated with a specific Microsoft account, and it's not possible to change this association directly. The only way to play Minecraft Java with a different Microsoft account would be to create a new Minecraft Java account and purchase the game again.

Knowing everything I told you, I'm sorry that you can't change your minecraft account to a different microsoft account, I hope you have a happy day. Oskayra

Unfortunately, once you link a Microsoft account to a Minecraft account, I am afraid they cannot be unlinked!

Hello,

I've tried from Minecraft website because Java Edition is not avaible on Microsoft Store.

Yes I can use credits on Microsoft Store, but can't find Minecraft Java Edition. I tought that Minecraft was a Microsoft's production, and that's why I sent a 25€ credit to my son on Microsoft account.

Is there a fix for this? Will Minecraft Java Editon be avaible on Microsoft Store?

Thanks,

Regards
