    Windows 10 Minecraft can't sign in to my Microsoft Account


    I purchased Minecraft a number of years ago and so got the windows 10 version for free, and it has worked on my previous laptop.

    I recently obtained a Hp Elitebook and now when I try to play it it gives me the following message

    "We tried to sign you into your Microsoft account, but something went wrong."

    I am also unable to sign in to my Windows Xbox Console Companion which says "We can't sign you in right now. Try again later. (0x406)"

    Please help Windows 10 Minecraft can't sign in to my Microsoft Account :)

    :)

    Transfer my minecraft windows 10 to another account

    Sign in the Microsoft Store with the old account. Then, install "Minecraft for Windows 10", it should be free. After that, sign out your old account from the Microsoft Store. Open up "Minecraft for Windows 10", then sign in with your new account. You will
    get updates for free if you do the following. I hope this helps.

    Windows 10 Minecraft can't sign in to my Microsoft Account

    Hi AquaGarnet67,

    sorry to hear. Please check if your System is uptodate (via Windows update and also the Windows Store APP). Check if all the 4 XBOX Services are running (via taskmanager / services) if this is all fine try to repair/update "Xbox Identity Provider".

    Hope this helps and please keep us informed

    Minecraft

    When you redeemed your Java Minecraft on Mojang, you have gotten a 5x5 code to redeem Minecraft on the Windows 10 store.

    This redemption is a separate service of your Mojang account, and it's possible to use a Microsoft Account email that is different from your Mojang account email.

    Mojang (which gives you Java Minecraft) is separate from the Microsoft Windows Store App, which uses a Microsoft Account email when you redeemed that 5x5 code.

    After redemption of that code, the Windows 10 Minecraft is tied to the Microsoft Account email you used on your Windows 10 PC. From then on, you don't really need the Mojang account anymore, if you only want to play on Windows 10. You will then get the game
    from the Windows 10 store only, with the E-Mail account you used on the Windows 10 store during code redemption.

    So make sure you are signed in with the Microsoft Account email (which might not necessarily be the Mojang account email) when you use the Windows 10 Store app to re-download your Windows 10 Minecraft again.

    I can't get out of the Minecraft Windows 10 Beta

    Let me explain. Minecraft was bought in the Microsoft Store using a different account. Then that account signed out and my account signed in. I am 100% certain that I bought the full version of Minecraft Windows 10.

    (EDIT) Also, it's the DEVELOPMENT beta, like the Xbox Insider Hub beta.

    Can't reedeem gift code

    Players who already have the previous PC or Mac edition of Minecraft (running on Java) can
    download Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition for free.

    Note You'll need to get a code from Mojang, the game developer, by signing in to your Mojang account before attempting to redeem your code for Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition. Otherwise, you
    may incur a charge. To get your code from Mojang:

    1. Sign in with your Mojang account.
    2. Under Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition, select the link to request a code. Microsoft Windows 10 will open.

      Note You'll need to sign in to or create a Microsoft account. If you sign in, use the Microsoft account you use to sign in to your Xbox account.
    3. If you're running Windows 10, you'll be able to download the game right after redeeming your code. If you're running an earlier operating system, you'll need to come back to Microsoft Store once you're running Windows 10.

    The code you receive from Mojang will be kept on your account, in case you’re unable to redeem it straight away, or in case you have problems trying to redeem it in Microsoft Store.
