Minecraft windows 7 edition, could not connect to the internet when sign in

Hi shayan malick,

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Community.

We are aware that the error message "could not connect to the internet" is preventing you from signing into your Minecraft account.

Microsoft made a commitment to provide 10 years of product support for Windows 7 when it was released on October 22, 2009. This 10-year period has now ended, and Microsoft has discontinued Windows 7 support so that we can focus our investment on supporting newer technologies and great new experiences. The specific end of support day for Windows 7 was January 14, 2020. Technical assistance and software updates from Windows Update that help protect your PC are no longer available for the product. Your best approach is to contact Mojang directly for assistance and they may have solution for this issue. Here's the link: Contact Us | Minecraft Help.

The details can be found at Windows 7 support ended on January 14, 2020 - Microsoft Support.

Kind regards,

Lavenia

Is this a question? If you have to buy it again, it's probably more like $27.90 than $279. You shouldn't have to buy it again. The problem I encountered is that the Windows 10 edition of Minecraft was not able to connect to the Internet for some reason. Because it could not connect to the Internet, the account I purchased could not be associated with my login credentials. The solution for me, was to download and use the Windows 7/8 launcher instead of the Windows 10 launcher. For whatever reason, that version of the launcher was able to connect to the Internet, and therefore to verify and associate my previously purchased account.

Minecraft pocket edition can only be connected to a Xbox when on the same internet connection as the console

To play minecraft on windows 7 you will need to have the Java edition of the game.

•A computer with two network adapters

•Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Note The Windows 7 Starter edition does not support this feature.

•High-speed Internet access

•A standard Ethernet cable
