    why dont I have access to minecraft anymore?


    To clear frequently suggested things

    1. YES I am writing this off of the Microsoft account that I successfully migrated my Mojang account to

    2. Yes I have played before (July 2022) post migration successfully and yet now I'm having difficulty

    I migrated my account march 14th 2022. Last time I played Minecraft I played July 9th 2022. It's been a few years and now with recent Minecraft discussion, I've wanted to play again. I redownloaded my Minecraft launcher, logged in with my Microsoft account, and yet it offers me to "buy" the game... even though I still have the original email from Mojang in March 2022 confirming my migration to my Microsoft account.

    I already own the Minecraft game with my own gamertag and skin. I did the proper steps and migrated my account like I was supposed to. Now no one has been able to help me? I want my old account back. I did all the right steps yet now there's an issue and I don't know why. This is so frustrating I just want my account back. I have the proof to back up that I did everything right...

    Hi nataliego,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I am sorry that you are still prompted that you have to buy the game, even if you already migrated your Minecraft.

    As part of our initial troubleshooting, kindly make sure that you are logged in using the same Microsoft account where you migrated the game. You may check it by going to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    Once confirmed that you are using the correct account, please follow my recommendations below.

    1. Delete the Minecraft launcher that exists on your computer.

    2. Restart your computer.

    3. Install legacy Minecraft launcher for Windows.

    https://aka.ms/minecraftClientWindows

    Once reinstalled, continue with these instructions.

    1. Open Minecraft launcher.

    2. If you are already logged in, click on your image and Gamer tag in the upper left corner of the screen and then on "Logout".

    3. After logging out, delete all accounts registered in the launcher by clicking on the "X" next to each account.

    4. In the Minecraft launcher, enter the Microsoft email and password.

    If you bought Minecraft from Microsoft Store, you have to go to Microsoft Store>My Library then look for Minecraft and install.

    Make sure you're signed into the Store app with the same Microsoft account that you used to buy the game.

    If the above steps did not work, please clear the cache of the Microsoft store. Go to Settings> System> Apps & features> Click Store> Advanced options> Reset.

    After the reset, log in with the Microsoft account that has Minecraft Java and reinstall Launcher. Check if you will now be able to play the game.

    I want to make sure that you will get all the assistance that you need. If you have further questions with the game, I recommend that you submit a ticket directly to Minecraft support so you can be guided by Minecraft specialists and have the chance to verify the ownership of your account.

    In this way, we can be assured that your case will be logged, attended and monitored in a timely manner.

    I dont have minecraft anymore

    have you checked your download history on the website as it will show all your purchases on your profile

    if it doesn't show there then it means it was purchased under a different profile

    Why I don't have access to my Minecraft anymore?

    Thank you so much for the update, this may also mean that the game is not available for your region since it's working on a different one.
