Windows 10: I am not able to RE-download Minecraft Windows 10 Edition.

Hello I am a owner of Minecraft Java Edition AND The Windows 10 Edition, my issue is that I would like to RE-download Minecraft Windows 10 Edition but am not able to, I bought Java Edition when it included the Windows 10 Edition for free. I try to redeem my code which I think already used to download Windows 10 Edition once on an old PC of mine but would like to re-download it again on my new PC if anybody is willing to help me as I am clueless that would be greatly appreciated. Also if any Microsoft employees want to call, I am willing to setup a time.

Hi,

If you already played Minecraft from its previous PC or Mac version (running Java), you will be eligible to download Minecraft: Windows 10 edition for free. Normally, you'll be able to download the full version right after you redeem the Minecraft: Windows
10 Beta code to your Windows 10 computer. In your case, there's a possibility it doesn't detect the beta code that you redeemed. We recommend that you reset the Windows Store to clear the store cache on your computer by performing the following steps:

• Press  Windows key + X on your keyboard. 
• Click on Command prompt (Admin).
• Type wsreset.exe, and then hit Enter.
• Restart your computer and reinstall the game.

Minecraft Win10 Edition

Hi Griffin,

If you have the previous version of Minecraft, you may download its latest version for free. Click this

link to download the game.

You'll be asked to enter a game code. If you don't have the code, kindly perform the following steps:

• Sign in with your Mojang account.
• Under Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition, select the link to request a code. The Windows 10 Store will open.
  
  Note: You'll need to sign in to or create a Microsoft account. If you sign in, use the Microsoft account you use to sign in to your Xbox account.
• If you're running Windows 10, you'll be able to download the game right after redeeming your code. If you're running an earlier operating system, you'll need to come back to the Windows Store once you're running Windows 10.
  

Keep us posted with the progress. We'd be glad to further assist you.
