    Microsoft Minecraft is kind of scamming me?


    I downloaded Minecraft with a redeemable code. It said I had the game, but when I went to play on servers, it said I still had to buy the game. I uninstalled it and was going to reinstall to see if that would fix the problem, but now it's trying to make me buy the whole game again. My code has been used, and now I'm stuck. What exactly should I do?

    :)

    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
