Windows 10: How do I re-download Minecraft for new computer after I have already purchased it?

I recently purchased a new computer to replace my old laptop. I am trying to re-download Minecraft but it is saying that I need to rebuy it. I dowloaded the xbox app, the launcher and apparently the free trial of Minecraft. In my Microsoft store, it shows that I bought it last year and shows the bundle, but has no option to download it again. I am logged in with all the same info. When I click on it to download it prompts me to buy it. How do I download it again without having to pay again?

Homegroup For Minecraft Servers Or What?

It looks as if the existing minecraft server will use the new system without modification - It needs to be able to access the computers on the network in a two way link, which is the standard for Workgroup and Homegroup

There is a complete step by step available, if you have any issues ...

It's not something I have any direct experience with but a quick read suggests to me that you will not need to do Much if any reconfiguration of the existing server

 

Minecraft Got Deleted After Clean Installating Windows 10 And Again Minecraft Purchased.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I think you did a Clean Installation of Windows 10 and Clean Installation will delete all your applications; games; and your user data such as music files, video files, pictures, documents, etc.



In order to get clarity on this issue and assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, please reply with the answers to the questions below.

1. From where did you purchase the Minecraft game?
   
2. Have you already installed Minecraft on your Windows 10 computer?
   

If you have purchased several copies of Minecraft from Mojang, then I suggest you to refer the
Mojang refunds policy and check their refund policy.



If you have purchased Minecraft from Microsoft Store, then I suggest you to refer
Returning items you bought from Microsoft Store for exchange or refund
and check if you can get a refund.



If you have purchased Minecraft from Oculus, then I suggest you to
Contact the Oculus Support Team and they will help you with this.



Please feel free to contact us back, in case you have any other questions/issues with Windows in future.

 

Cannot download/install minecraft without making a new purchase

Hi, I purchased Minecraft (Window 10 Edition) back in April this year for my daughter and had it installed in her old computer. She is now getting another computer but I cannot seem to download the game without paying for it again.

The purchase record shows that I have purchased Minecraft but when I tried to download the game in Microsoft Store/web browser, it still requires me to pay. My daughter is the administrator of this computer but I already sign-in using the account that I
purchased Minecraft with and still couldn't get it work.

Please help.
