Windows 10: Code was already redeemed TODAY but I didn't get my game

When I went to get Minecraft for Windows 10 which you get free if you bought Java edition long enough ago, I went to go change my account email because it's still on my mom's old email which is not accessible by me or her and couldn't get the text to go through. That's fine, I'll deal with it later. I came back to the page to redeem the code and it said the code had already been redeemed. I didn't download the game, I didn't know how to get the game at all without outright buying it. I go and check my redeemed codes and it says it was redeemed today. I try to find a way to download it, and I can't find anything. I go to the page, it doesn't offer me to install it w/out buying. Is this a glitch? Am I just not understanding how to get the game? What's up with that?

Redeem a game

I'm from Romania, Europe, don't know if my language will be available but i don't want it in my language, i want it in english.

I've done both Online and Windows 10 steps from the link, but still the same error:

Check the instructions that came with your code. You might need to redeem it on a different web page.

 

Redeem a game

Hi,

One of the possible reasons as to why you're encountering issues in redeeming the game code is due to the game not available in your location. Currently, here are the languages that the game supports:

• English (United States)
• 中文(中华人民共和国)
• 中文(香港特別行政區)
• Français (France)
• Deutsch (Deutschland)
• Italiano (Italia)
• 日本語 (日本)
• 한국어(대한민국)
• Polski (Polska)
• Português (Brasil)
• усский ( оссия)
• Español (España, Alfabetización Internacional)
• Español (Latinoamérica)

If your language is not listed, that means that the game is not yet available in your country.

If the game is available in your region but you're still having issues with redeeming the code, we suggest that you follow the steps provided on this

link on how to redeem the game code from the Windows 10 Store.

Notify us with the results. We'd be glad to further assist you.
