    Why does it say I need to buy Minecraft when I bought it 7 years ago


    I recently tried to get back onto Minecraft after Microsoft bought it and once I updated my Mojang it says I don't own Minecraft. Please help since my friends are going to start a server soon and I don't want to spend another $30 on it.

    :)

    Hi AnonymousOperator, 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.

    I would like to ask, what Minecraft version are you looking for? Is this Minecraft for Windows or Minecraft Java Edition?

    Minecraft on PC after buying Xbox One version?

    Years ago I bought the Xbox version of Minecraft. Now I have Game Pass Ultimate & its not on PC version of the pass & never bought the PC version on any storefront. Now when I look at Windows 10 store it says Install or Buy to Own. Do I have Minecraft
    on PC or not? I dont wanna buy the game again if I already own it on PC, especially when I already own it on console.

    Bought Minecraft a year ago and now it says I didn't

    This allowed me to install the launcher, thank you very much.

    Hi, Keyan. My name is Ron, I'm an independent advisor. I will be more than happy to help you.

    Let's try logging out from the Minecraft launcher first, then log in with your new Microsoft account, please don't use your old Mojang account login details. You will need to click the "Go back" button on the login screen then click "Add account" and then choose "Microsoft login."

    If that doesn't work, please try using the other version of the launcher which you can download from this link, https://aka.ms/minecraftClientWindows
