    Minecraft Launcher isn't letting me download Minecraft Windows!


    I understand that there are a few other posts out there and a few tutorials online about how to fix various issues BUT they don't fix mine!

    They all include something in common; an error code, but mine doesn't even show one!

    I installed the Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft store (which took like 2h btw because it kept failing and I had to try several methods!) and when I loaded it the first thing I wanted to do was to load it into Minecraft bedrock (Minecraft windows 10 for the specific name) and was created with a bug that just greys out the play button once I click "install"- no error code shows up and nothing changes even if given hours to change- nothing does, I tried the same thing with java and it works perfectly and very quick...

    But I prefer the Windows 10 version so its annoying to not be able to get back to the game I like more. I have tried reinstalling, downloading from other apps such as the xbox app and from the minecraft.net page, but nothing has changed the outcome and it has been the EXACT same issue since.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Note:

    I have tried to install Minecraft windows 10 from the store but its now removed from the Microsoft store so I couldn't.

    :)

    Minecraft Launcher isn't letting me download Minecraft Windows!

    Hello, Realcancov. Thanks for reaching out. I'm Lucas, an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be glad to help you out.

    Have you tried to download the new launcher for the Minecraft for Windows + Java Bundle? If you haven't, please try it and let me know how it goes. You should be able to download it since you own both versions.

    If it still does not work, please uninstall all launchers and all Minecrafts you have on Windows and restore your Operational System via the ISO Image Tool. You will be able to maintain your installed games and files.

    If you're using Windows 10:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    If you're using Windows 11:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    Download it > Open the ISO image tool > Open setup.exe > Select upgrade > Download from the cloud > Keep games and apps.

    After that, please install every update available for Windows on the Windows Update. Install all the optional updates too.

    Then, clear the Microsoft Store cache and re-register the apps:

    - Go to Start > Settings > Apps > Apps & features > Microsoft Store > Advanced Options > Reset.

    - Go to Start > Settings > Apps > Apps & features > Xbox App > Advanced Options > Reset.

    Go to Start > Type PowerShell > Right click it and select “Run As Administrator” > Type the following command and press Enter:

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    - Delete the Cache folder at:

    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.XboxIdentityProvider_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AC\TokenBroker

    - Also delete Microsoft Store local cache files at:

    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe

    Try to install Minecraff direct from the Bundle on the Store and let me know how it goes.

    Minecraft Windows 10 Edition is not updating to new versions on my PC.

    Minecraft Launcher has released but anyway it's downloading 1.17.10 version (even through Minecraft Launcher). Of course i can download the newest version of Minecraft Windows 10 Edtion through unofficial launcher but it's a little unpleasant when the newest version isn't downloading from official source :(

    CLiP license id does not match the device in the bound device license

    I don't get an error code accept for "an error occurred on our end" and a manual install also does not work.

    Also is their three packages for the minecraft launcher?

    One that is for both java edition and inecragt for Windows

    The second java edition

    The third minecraft for windows.

    I did eventually get a version to work since the old launcher redirected me to the new launcher which I installed and did let me install minecraft for windows version.

    However the store version which downloads java edition and something else never worked.

    Not by reseting not by uninstalling and reinstalling not by downloading from the minecraft website and manually downloading.

    Minecraft migration game lost

    Did you try to uninstall and install Minecraft again?

    Also go to Minecraft website and download the Windows 7/8 launcher. Try playing the game using it. The Windows 10 launcher is having this "play demo" bug.

    https://minecraft.net/download

    Make sure you sign in with the correct Microsoft Account used for the Migration.

    See how it goes and please let me know.
