    Why is it telling me to buy minecraft again


    Somehow my access to minecraft has disappeared. I used to play on this account in 2020 with minecraft for windows as well as ios, I can see I have achievements from that time. However, after relogging onto this account now, it's telling me to buy minecraft again and won't let me launch minecraft for windows edition. Please help.

    :)

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    We need to validate if you're signed in under the correct Microsoft account. Please sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders, from there locate the game order for the game "Minecraft for Windows", it should be stated as "completed".

    If you're not seeing the game from there please check all Microsoft accounts that you own.

    I bought minecraft, and it's telling me to buy it again

    Hello elias gabriel5,



    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    I know you purchased Minecraft and redeemed it under your account, but you still need to purchase it when you use the same email.



    First, you log out of your Microsoft account and log back in, sometimes logging back in can update your account's subscription and redemption history.



    You can see your purchase history in the order history when you log in to https://account.microsoft.com/. If you have Minecraft purchase history in your account, but your account cannot play Minecraft, we recommend that you contact Xbox's technical support team, because since Microsoft Community is a public platform, it is not appropriate to publish your personal order information, you can provide your purchase record or chargeback record to the Xbox support team, they will have specialized personnel to solve the subscription redemption problem for you.

    Contact us | Xbox Support

    1. Select the "Contact us" button.

    2. Select the drop-down menu option that matches your issue.

    3. The next window will provide you with support articles based on your request. We recommend that you review the relevant articles before selecting the "View contact options" button.

    4. In the last window, you will see multiple options. We recommend that you select the "Live Chat" or "Request a Call" option to talk to someone. Be sure to provide as many details as possible.

    Please feel free contact me if you need more help.



    Best regards

    Why is Minecraft asking me to buy it again?

    Hi Bhavini Mattaparthy ,



    Thank you for posting to the Microsoft community.

    Based on the description, it appears that every time I launch Minecraft it says I need to buy Minecraft again.

    I'm glad you took the time to consider this for us so we can help you figure it out for you.

    Before anything else, let me ask you the following questions below so that I fully understand the problem.

    1. When does the issue started?

    2. Did you make any changes to your PC prior to this issue?

    In your case, you need to log in to your account.

    On Minecraft Launcher sign out and sign back in on this part
