Windows 11 - Microsoft Store will not download Minecraft Launcher App

Hello, Noah. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your concern today.

Please try the potential solution I’m going to share below:

Step 1. Sign out from the account that owns the game on the Minecraft launcher, the Microsoft store, and the Xbox app.

Step 2. Reset and repair the Microsoft Store and the Minecraft launcher:

-For the Microsoft store, press the Windows key + R > in the dialog box type wsreset.exe
Wait until the Microsoft store is open.

-For the Minecraft launcher, press the Windows key + I > Apps > Installed Apps > click the app and click advanced options (on Windows 11, click on more) > click reset and repair.

Step 3. Sign in with the account that owns Minecraft on the Microsoft Store, the Xbox app, finally, on the Minecraft launcher.
Try playing Minecraft bedrock edition.

I could not find and download Minecraft Windows 10 Edition in the Microsoft Store app.

Edit: didn't work on downloading the minecraft launcher

Try this to fix the deep ocean error:
First uninstall the current minecraft launcher.

Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update
Click Check for Updates

Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too. (Click on get updates)

Now, sign out from your account on both Xbox app and Microsoft Store and do this:

Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

After that, click repair and then reset

Then do the same for the Xbox app:

Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

After that, click repair and then reset

Finally do this:

Step 1: Open the Run window by pressing Windows + R key.

Step 2: Input WSReset.exe in the Run window and click OK.

Step 3: Then a command prompt window will appear. After a few seconds, Windows Store will open.

Sign in again on both Microsoft store and Xbox app with your account and install minecraft launcher using the Xbox app, not the Microsoft store

If that doesn't work try to download and install the Launcher marked as Windows 7/8 from this page - https://minecraft.net/download (if you play only Java. If not, the launcher for Windows 10/11)

Hey DusanTutunovic,

The Java copy of Minecraft can only be obtained by downloading the launcher Here.

The MICROSOFT store will only have the 'Windows 10 Edition'

Please fully uninstall all Minecraft apps, launchers, files. After you do this, download the launcher I linked above.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.
