    Minecraft Windows On Pc Not Working


    Basically, I've been trying to play Minecraft on my pc after not being on it for a while, ( I originally purchased the game through the Minecraft site). It got to the point where it has had quite a FEW updates and well it's completely not working, I tried to play with my friend who was on Xbox and it said "outdated client", the Minecraft version of mine was older than his, and mine didn't update. I have tried to update it via the Microsoft store but it was unresponsive and would not allow me, so I looked up tutorials which didn't help and I fidgeted around with some things like resetting the Microsoft store, uninstalling Minecraft, etc.. didn't work. Anyways I have got the installer to work HOWEVER, now it says to install windows which FYI java has installed no probs, but windows ver; which is what I need to play w/ my friend as he doesn't own a pc.. when I click on that button it says play (no indication of it downloading) and is grey and not clickable. Does anyone get a fix for this problem?

    I'll attach the java v windows edition below

    I can't log into a multiplayer server using MS account

    I don't think Minecraft for Windows is used on an Xbox, right? I'm using a PC and moved my account to Minecraft for Windows for the whole shutting down Mojang accounts access in a few days. So, on my PC, I can log onto the server through the Mojang account but not on my Minecraft for Windows account. Those two accounts should work when logging into a PC server, right?

    problem updating minecraft on disk

    The update is to Minecraft Windows 10 edition that also works on Xbox, as the Minecraft you have is no longer supported, it still works as I still play it at times. But yes, the update message is for you to get the Windows 10 version that works on both
    PC and Xbox, so you can save a game on Xbox and boot it up on PC and carry on.

    Can`t start my Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition Beta

    You should not have a problem with windows 10 edition Minecraft because you don't have the PC version. It works perfectly fine with out having the java PC version of Minecraft. Does it work now? Please explain

    Minecraft won't install

    If you're trying to play on PC, you need "Minecraft for Windows 10". If you bought "Minecraft" it will only work on the console. Minecraft is not a Play Anywhere title so it will not work on both through 1 purchase.

    Minecraft Windows On Pc Not Working

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Ivy_666

    Please try and double check this, all together:

    First uninstall the current minecraft launcher.

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update
    Click Check for Updates

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too. (Click on get updates)

    Now, sign out from your account on both Xbox app and Microsoft Store and do this:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then reset

    Then do the same for the Xbox app:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then reset

    Finally do this:

    Step 1: Open the Run window by pressing Windows + R key.

    Step 2: Input WSReset.exe in the Run window and click OK.

    Step 3: Then a command prompt window will appear. After a few seconds, Windows Store will open.

    Sign in again on both Microsoft store and Xbox app with your account and install minecraft launcher (do it using the Xbox app, not the Microsoft store)

    -------

    If maybe the issue persist try this:
    Press Windows button and type Services

    On Services App from the list of results, press right-click and run it as administrator

    Scroll to the bottom and find the following services:

    IP Helper
    Xbox Live Auth Manager
    Xbox Live Game Save
    Xbox Live Networking Service
    Gaming Services

    And do this with each of the services listed above:

    Right-click over the service and select Properties.
    Find the Startup type section and make sure it’s set to Automatic (if not, change it to automatic)
    If the service isn’t started, click Start to start the services

    Restart your PC and try again
