    why can i not log in to minecraft launcher when clicking microsoft login

    Hello,

    Thank you for sharing your concern here in Xbox Community Forum and we hope that all is well.

    Based on the description you are trying to sign in your Minecraft account through Minecraft launcher in Xbox app and is unable to because the app crashes. Let us check on what we can do to help resolve your concern in a timely manner.

    We would like to ask few questions to help us isolate the issue further.

    1. When did the issue start?

    2. What version of Windows you are using? To check, press Windows key + R and type winver in the run dialog box then hit OK.

    3. When was the last time you have played Minecraft in your device?

    4. Are you getting an error message or error code?

    For the meantime, here are the troubleshooting steps that we can perform:

    1. Make sure Windows is up to date

    • Press the Start button on the taskbar, type settings, and then select Settings.
    • On Windows 10, select Update & Security. On Windows 11, select Windows Update.
    • On the Windows Update page, select Check for updates to see if any updates are available including optional updates for your device.
    • Once the updates have downloaded, select Install now to start the installation.
    • Following installation, we recommend that you restart your device so that the latest updates can take effect.
    2. Make sure both the Xbox and Gaming Services apps are up to date

    • Press the Start button on the taskbar, type store, and open the Microsoft Store app.
    • Select Library.
    • Under Updates & downloads, check if there are any updates available for the Xbox app or Gaming Services app. If an update is available, select Update.
    3. Make sure you are signed in to the Xbox app and the Store with the same account.

    > To make sure your permissions for the game can be validated, be sure to sign in to both the Store and the Xbox app using the same account that was used to purchase the game.

    4. Uninstall and reinstall Gaming Services

    • Select the Search icon on the taskbar, type powershell, right-click on Windows PowerShell, and then select Run as administrator.
    • In Windows PowerShell, type the following command and press Enter:
      get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-AppxPackage -allusers
    • In the same window, type the following command and press Enter:
      start ms-windows-store://pdp/?productid=9MWPM2CQNLHN
    • Install the app on that page and select Yes when you receive the User Account Control (UAC) prompt.
    • Restart your device and try to install the game again.

    5. Uninstall and Reinstall Minecraft Launcher.

    • Type Minecraft Launcher in the Windows search box, right-click and click Uninstall. After uninstalling, restart the computer.

      Open the Microsoft Store/Xbox app, search for Minecraft Launcher using the search box, and install Minecraft Launcher.

    Lost token

    Hi there Racca R.

    I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today.

    I am so sorry you are having issues with your Minecraft launcher token.

    The token you deleted is likely a session token used by the Minecraft launcher to authenticate your account without requiring you to log in every time. Deleting this token means the launcher can't verify your credentials automatically, which is why you're unable to play.

    The simplest solution is to reauthenticate your account by logging in again. Here's how to do it:

    Open the Minecraft Launcher: Start the Minecraft launcher you usually use.
    Log Out: If you're not already logged out, log out from your current session. You can usually find this option in the launcher settings or by clicking on your profile icon.
    Log In Again: Enter your Minecraft (Mojang/Microsoft) account email and password. This will generate a new session token, allowing you to play the game.

    Ensure that you have the correct email and password for your Minecraft account. If you've forgotten your password, you can reset it:

    Mojang Accounts: Go to the Mojang account login page and use the "Forgot Password" feature.
    Microsoft Accounts: If you’ve migrated to a Microsoft account, go to the Microsoft account login page and use the "Forgot Password" feature.

    Ensure that your Minecraft launcher is up-to-date. Sometimes, outdated software can cause authentication issues. You can download the latest version of the launcher from the official Minecraft website.

    You can also reinstall the launcher.

    I hope this helps!

    Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. -Lumie

    I can't login to Minecraft launcher!

    Hello, Its V my name is Oskayra I am an independent advisor and player like you I hope I can help solve your problem today

    It's definitely concerning that the Minecraft launcher isn't showing your correct Microsoft account when you try to log in. This could be due to several reasons, so let's explore some troubleshooting options:

    Verify your Microsoft Account Credentials:

    Double-check the email address and password you're entering for your Microsoft account.

    Make sure you're using the correct Microsoft account associated with your Minecraft license.

    If you have multiple Microsoft accounts, ensure you're selecting the correct one in the login window.

    Check for Cached Data:

    Sometimes, cached data can interfere with the login process.

    Try resetting the Minecraft launcher by following these steps:

    Close the Minecraft launcher completely.
    Press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog box.

    Type %appdata% and press Enter.
    Navigate to the ".minecraft" folder and delete the "launcher_accounts.json" file.
    This will clear your cached login information.

    Restart the Minecraft launcher and try logging in again.

    Update the Minecraft Launcher:

    Ensure you're using the latest version of the Minecraft launcher.

    Outdated versions may contain bugs that cause login issues.
    Open the Minecraft launcher and go to Settings.

    Click on "Installations" and then "New Installation".

    Select the latest version of Minecraft and click "Create".

    Once the installation is complete, try logging in again.

    Sign Out and Sign In Again:

    If you're logged into your Microsoft account on other devices, try signing out and signing back in.
    This can sometimes refresh your account information and resolve the issue.

    Additional Tips:

    Ensure you have a stable internet connection.

    Disable any VPN or antivirus software that might be interfering with the login process.

    Consider checking for any known server outages or maintenance periods affecting Minecraft logins.

    I really hope your problem has been fixed with my help, if it works let me know and have a nice day. Oskayra
