Windows 10: Minecraft for Windows 10 on different account.

So, in 2015, i bought Minecraft Java edition which was during the time when the Windows 10 Edition came free with it. I no longer have access to the account that i redeemed the free code on, and am wondering if it is possible to transfer the code over to this one, or disable the game on the previous account and send me a new code? I don't have an Xbox, and I want to play with my friends who only use Xbox. We all decided to try Minecraft, because it has cross platform capabilities (at least for the win10 edition, not java.) I have attached an image showing that I did get the Windows 10 edition free, to prove I am not lying (although i have blanked out the code for obvious reasons.)


Thanks in advance...

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch the Store from your Start menu.
• Click the user icon next to the search box.
• Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
• Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
• When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
