can anyone help me bc i had to reset the computer but now i dont have minecraft anymore and i have to buy again but i dont want to buy it again can anyone help me
Hi, I'm John! I will help you with this.
Just download the Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft Store, then sign in with the same Microsoft account you used to purchase the game. Once you’re signed in, it should recognize your purchase and let you reinstall it.
However, if you chose not to keep your files during the reset, your saved worlds might be lost since they’re stored locally on your PC.
Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
thank you John but i already tried it but it says i never purchesd it and it wiped everything from my xbox account on my pc and i kinda feel that i got scamed
Thank you for letting me know.
Please make sure you’re signed in with the same Microsoft account you used to purchase Minecraft. Then visit your order history here: https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders Make sure to adjust the date range at the top of the page so it shows older purchases,, you might not see it right away if it was bought a while ago.
If Minecraft appears there, that means your license is still linked to that account. Just sign in with that same account in both the Microsoft Store and Minecraft Launcher.
If it doesn’t appear, it might have been purchased under a different Microsoft or Xbox account.
Let me know how it goes.
in the order history it said i never bought anything and at my other email that i made for back up didnt even exist when i got it and if i have to buy it again its a scam and my son is pretty sad
i also had do completly reset the computer and all files and i had minecraft on my second storage wich i added but i dont know if it has something to do with it and i also have a problem trying to get it regnorized by the computer
Thank you for trying those steps and letting me know.
