    Microsoft saying I don't have any applicable devices linked to my account to download a...


    I've purchased Minecraft from the Microsoft Store, via a link from the Xbox Console Companion included with my laptop, but it comes up with the error message above.

    I've trawled the internet to try to resolve it. I've manually updated windows to the latest. I've checked that my laptop does come up as a device linked to my Microsoft account.

    I've never uploaded a game to my laptop, so am presuming/hoping I'm missing something simple.

    I thought it as a simple promise to my son, and now he's been begging me for 2 days! Haha

    :)

  3. ‘No applicable devices linked to Microsoft account’

    Hello Greg,

    I recently upgraded to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. When I try to install a game, while signed into my account, from the MS webpage, I get a dialog box stating:

    Where do you want to install?

    It looks like you don’t have any applicable device(s) linked to your Microsoft account. To install, sign in on a device with your Microsoft account.

    My account manger shows my PC on my devices' listing page. I linked to the manager using the same account, which displays "My account login" on both the page trying to install and the devices listing. Apparently the dialog cannot access the devices linked
    to my account.

    When I did not use the "...." -> "Install on my devices" and just clicked "Install/play" the install did kick off and is apparently working.

    It looks like you don’t have any applicable device(s) linked to your Microsoft account.

    Very frustrated, I just purchased Minecraft for Windows 10 from the Microsoft store, but when it gets to the install step, I get: It looks like you don’t have any applicable device(s) linked to your Microsoft account.
    To install, sign in on a device with your Microsoft account.

    But I am signed in, the PC shows up on my list of devices and I'm attempting to download it to that same PC listed. It's linked but refuses to allow my purchase to be downloaded. I've gone through the Get More Info
    section but nothing helps. The device is listed with "No issues found" but I'm at a loss as to how to get my purchase installed. This has to be an issue someone else has run into, what's the solution? Thanks!
