Hi,

We cannot use the Java version from the Windows 10 license. For better assistance on your Minecraft license, we would suggest that you contact our Xbox Billing Department directly on this

link.

Let us know how it turns out.

 

Minecraft for Windows 10 and Minecraft Java

Hi

My son bought a Minecraft license for the Windows 10 version, but his friends are all running the Java version. Is there any way that he can use the Java version from his Win 10 license? We tried to install the Java version but it only wants to make us buy
it.

Thanks

Hello DanielHepfer,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Minecraft for Windows 10 features cross-platform play with any device running Minecraft (excluding Minecraft Java Edition) and supports features which let you play in virtual reality with the Oculus Rift. Cross-platform can be
played up to eight players across Windows 10 PCs, Android devices, iOS phones and tablets, Xbox One, and virtual reality platforms. As you will be downloading Java edition of Minecraft in Mac, you will not be able to use cross-platform feature. Minecraft Java
Edition supports cross-platform play between MacOS, Linux and Windows. You can download Java Edition on Windows to use cross-platform feature from:
https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.dmg

If you face any further questions, you can contact Minecraft support forums.

Hope it helps.
