Windows 10: Family sharing Minecraft windows 10 edition.

Hi, I recently just bought Minecraft on my 'adult' account me and my son are in the family group.

Can i family share this so he can use it with his account?

many thanks,

Share Minecraft with Family

I've seen a more or less similar post but of 2016, so I was hoping things might be different now.

Is it possible to buy minecraft once and share it with your kids on the family account and can they play it simultaneously?

I find this whole family account and content sharing on the microsoft store very confusing. It is very obvious in the Google play store how that works and there I bough minecraft once and can share it with my kids who can play it simultaneously.

 

Setting Microsoft Family app limit on Minecraft Java edition

Time spent using Minecraft Java edition doesn't show up in the list of apps used in Microsoft Family. This means you can't set an app limit on it. Minecraft launcher shows up, but it only says it has been used for 1 minute, whereas i know the game has
been played for hours. How can parental controls be applied here? It works for Minecraft Windows 10 edition but not Java.

Hi Greg

Thank you very much. I followed the steps and it is working perfectly. The kids are now playing minecraft using the family accounts.
