    Minecraft Launcher and App Won't Download


    I just bought minecraft windows edition yesterday and want to download it on my 2017 surface. Currently, downloading either windows edition or the launcher from the microsoft store doesn't work. I've tried restarting the app and repairing its data as well as updating the laptop and restarting it. It keeps getting stuck after saying it's going to create a new folder with the app data. Other downloads are still available. Looking for help with this. Also since I want to play Minecraft, is the Xbox app or launcher even necessary? The Xbox app won't load either.

    :)

    New machine need to install old minecraft version which I purchased in 2021. I can't find a way to find a way to reinstall.

    Hello, Dilan A. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your inquiry today.

    Please check if you can access the game by following the steps I’m going to share below:

    -Download and open the Xbox app on your PC
    -Verify that you sign in the Xbox app and the Microsoft account with the account that you used to purchase Minecraft.
    -On the Xbox app, search for the Minecraft launcher once you click on Library and download it.

    Note: in case the Minecraft launcher doesn’t appear there, look for it and download it by clicking “Microsoft Store” on the Xbox app.

    -Once downloaded the Minecraft launcher, access with the account that owns the game and try launching Minecraft for Windows when the launcher downloads all the dependencies.

    XBOX App stuck on "Preparing 0%"

    I see. If that fails, try downloading the game via Minecraft launcher. You can download the launcher through the Microsoft Store app, Xbox app, and the Mojang website. After installing the launcher, log in with your Microsoft account and download Microsoft Dungeons.

    Minecraft feedback website doesn't let me log into my Microsoft account

    Hello Happy_AlexRO, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    Please try the following procedure to see if it solves your Minecraft problem:

    First of all, if you have any Minecraft Launcher installed, please uninstall it completely from your PC.

    https://www.xbox.com/games/store/minecraft-launcher/9PGW18NPBZV5

    Install the new Minecraft Launcher that can be downloaded from the Xbox app. Said Launcher corrects most of the problems.

    It is recommended that you install it on the same storage unit where you have your Windows installed. It weighs approximately 10 MB so it won't take up much memory, don't worry.

    Launch the Minecraft Launcher you just installed from the Xbox app, then sign in with the Microsoft account you purchased the game with or the account you migrated it to.

    Best regards.
