    When i open the minecraft launcher, it gives me an error code and i don't know what to do...


    Hello,

    I recently bought minecraft on minecraft.net and downloaded the minecraft launcher to play on pc. However, when I open it I get a pop-up message asking if I am the owner of the app. (See screenshot below but it is in Dutch). It states the following: "please verify that you have a valid subscription to access this content and are signed in to an account with a valid subscription. If you purchased this online, check that you are signed in. If you do not own the game, you must download it from the microsoft store. Error code: (0x803F8001)"

    It then gives me the option to press a button that says "manage subscription" or "show in microsoft store".

    I am under the impression that I did buy the game because I payed 14.99 euros for it. Furthermore, I am also logged into the microsoft store. Also I have windows 11 so there should be no problems there.

    Then when I click the "manage subscription" button I get to the Xbox game pass page. Do I need to buy this subscription to play only single player on minecraft (I thought I didn't need to)? If not, how do I get past this error message?

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    Hi Nikita, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    No, you don't need a subscription to play online on PC.

    Currently, there's an issue with the Mojang Servers causing this error.

    You can try a few troubleshooting steps that have worked for some players.

    Please, reset the store and try installing the game again.

    To Reset the Store, Press the Windows Key + R > Type WSReset.exe and press Enter.

    Then, on the Microsoft Store, type your game name: "Minecraft".

    Close the store and reopen it.

    Load the game page and click on "Install".

    In case it does not work, please, look for the purchase in your Transaction History.

    Sign in here:

    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders?period=AllTime&type=All

    Then, copy the order number and contact Xbox Support.

    https://support.microsoft.com/home/contact

    Then, follow these steps:

    Type in your query: "Agent"

    Click on Get Help.

    Scroll down the page and click on Contact Support.

    Select your "Other Products" and "Billing and Account Profile Questions" > Confirm.

    Select "Chat with a support agent in your web browser" > Confirm > Start Chat.

    I hope this helps.

    i cant open minecraft and when i open fh5 its stuck on the sign in screen

    May I know what country do you live in?

    And when you try to open the Minecraft Launcher, do you receive any error message or it just does not open?

    I get error code 0x803F8001.

    I did contact support already and they told me to update and get something that I think was called windows media. I am on windows and I'm trying to play Minecraft java edition. I get this error when I open the Minecraft launcher it gives me that error.

    Minecraft stuck on pending

    Hi Vinicius,

    Thank you so much for responding to my post! At first checking for updates worked and it took it out of "pending" but when I try to open the launcher to actually download the game, it gives me this:

    "Minecraft Launcher is currently not available in your account. Make sure you are signed in to the Store and try again. Here’s the error code, in case you need it: 0x803F8001"

    Even though I am signed in, it gives me that message. I tried signing out and signing back in and making sure there are no updates.
