Windows 10: I got minecraft windows 10 and it is not installing even though it saids that i owned it.

I bought Minecraft once before, but it was for a different Microsoft account that is not the same one that my pc is using. It worked for a bit at the start and then after a bit even after loading it up it doesn't finish the initial loading screen, so I uninstall it and I could never install it again. I thought maybe its the Microsoft account because I did change a few things on my other account that's not used for my pc, thus I changed the account of the Microsoft store to match with my PC and then I bought Minecraft again and this time it still didn't work even looking at a few forums before I bought it again.


After I checked the Minecraft Windows 10 Page, I saw that It couldn't detect my Ram, even though after going to the system it does show that I have 8gb of ram. I'm not sure if that is the problem.

I no longer own Minecraft in the Windows 10 Store?

I owned Mojang's Minecraft. When it came out on Windows 10, I redeemed for my free version. Anytime I rebuilt my PC, I could always reinstall Minecraft because the Windows Store knew I owned it. I just got a new PC, installed Windows 10 and went into the store and tried to install Minecraft. Now it wants me to pay $26. So what happened? Why do I no longer own Minecraft in the store?

minecraft windows 10 not installing?

Hi Xpsychonauticon,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

I can understand the situation must be difficult for you when the game doesn't get installed as it should.

Please answer these questions to get clarity on this issue:

1. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to this issue?
   
2. Is the issue specific to this game?
   
3. Are you referring to Minecraft app from Windows Store?
   
4. Are you able to install other apps from the Microsoft Store?
   
5. Are you able to uninstall the app?
   

However, let us follow these methods and check if that makes any difference.

Method 1: If your answer to the Q-5 is No, then suggest you to follow the steps from this article to

fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store. Once the steps are done, remember to restart the PC.
