so for some reason Minecraft windows 10 will not install. i get error 0:000001 or sumn like...

Hi, I hope you're doing great despite the issue you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

First, make sure that your OS is updated by following the steps below:

Settings > Updates & Security > Check for updates.

If it's already updated and the issue persists you may need to uninstall the gaming services and reinstall it.

1. In the Windows search bar, type Windows PowerShell

2. In the menu, select "Run as administrator"

3. In the Administrator: Windows PowerShell screen, type the following command and press Enter:

get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers

4. In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:

start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN

5. Click Install** to install Gaming Services (select Yes if you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt)

6. Restart your device.

Got it installed after getting this error. For some reason it doesn't like being installed on my D: drive.

What I did to get it working:

Uninstall the Minecraft Launcher

Reinstall it

Go to install Minecraft for Windows

When it asks what drive to install it to, select C:

Enjoy

Hey there,

Is there a specific error code that you get with that error message? It sounds like there may a network issue, or there may be other software installed on your Windows 10 PC that may be interfering with connecting to the game's servers. To start, let's try
uninstalling and reinstalling Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition from your Windows 10 PC. You can uninstall Minecraft from the app list within the Start Menu on Windows 10, and reinstall the game through the Windows Store.

Hope this helps!

1. I have no other Microsoft games installed. When I installed Minecraft, it was not owned by Microsoft.

2. I only get this when I've been signed out of the Minecraft launcher, usually by an OS or driver update that requires a full restart. For that reason I don't get much chance to troubleshoot.

3. Microsoft Store reports that it had an error. There is no error code. There is a suggestion that I try again, later.

4. Windows 10 Home 19043.1526, Windows Defender and Firewall, and NordVPN which was not active.

While there are some "Play Anywhere" titles, that allow you to buy a game once, and play it on Windows 10 and Xbox One, there are no Xbox 360 titles that would transfer over to your Windows 10.

And to make matters worse, as Smwutches already said, Minecraft is not a Play Anywhere title either, so there are already two reasons why you can't get Minecraft on your Windows 10 from your Xbox 360 purchase.

However, if you purchase the Java Minecraft on Mojang, you will also get a code for the Windows 10 version.
