About this video: In this video, we show you how to download and install the new Minecraft Launcher using the Microsoft Store. This may also be referred to as the Gamepass Launcher as it was the Minecraft Launcher that was launched with Minecraft being added to Xbox Gamepass. With this launcher, you can play Minecraft Java Edition and Minecraft Windows/Bedrock Edition all from the same launcher. So, without anymore delay, here is how to get the new Minecraft Launcher from the Microsoft Store!

First things first, you will need to either have Xbox Gamepass or own a copy of Minecraft. Once you have either of those, we can move on to install the Minecraft Launcher. To do this, open up the Microsoft store. Every Windows PC should have the Microsoft Store on it. Once you are in the Microsoft Store, click the search box in the top right. Then, search for ‘Minecraft Launcher’. Keep in mind that there are a bunch of different versions of Minecraft. You want the one simply called ‘Minecraft Launcher’.

After you have clicked on the Minecraft Launcher, you should have an ‘Install’ button in the top right of the page. Click this button, and the Minecraft Launcher will begin installing. How long the Minecraft launcher takes to download will depend on your internet speed. Once it is finished though, you will have an ‘open’ button. Click this, and the Minecraft Launcher will open right up!

Before you an actually play Minecraft though, you will need to sign in to either your Microsoft or Mojang account. For most people, this will be their Microsoft account. However, for some players, you may still be on a legacy Mojang account. After you have logged in though, you can see both Minecraft Windows Edition and Minecraft Java Edition on the right-hand side. Click Minecraft Java addition and click the green Play button to start play Minecraft.

If you do want to play Minecraft Bedrock Edition on Windows, click the Minecraft Windows Edition and click the green play button there. With this, you can easily switch between the different versions of Minecraft doing this making it super easy to play with your friends on other platforms.

  7. Microsoft is a nightmare. I wish I was joking.

    Ill just list the problems here:
    1) Needed to migrate my account three times before it worked
    2) Had to install a new launcher, but it was a chore to find it.
    —> 2a) via the store in browser: couldnt find it straight away
    —> 2b) i clicked on the launcher app to be played inside the basket of the store, clicked on my basket and the basket said it was empty.
    —> 2c) had to find it in the microsoft store app. I opened the store app, but the search bar returned back '"no search results for 'minecraft"' and "no search results for 'minecraft launcher"'. Luckily minecraft is a popular game so i found it by luck on the front page of the game tab.

    3) I wanted to get the app and the store told me to login. So I logged in with the microsoft account I linked minecraft to. It finally downloaded after several failed attempts, but got stuck at the installing phase.
    —> 3a) I opened the store again and went straight back to the launcher app page and I found I could click on 'play' so I did. It showed an updating dialogue and then the launcher with the microsoft account and mojang account options.
    —> 3b) I hadmigrated so i confidently clicked on login with microsoft account. Another surprise: without explaination it said "something went wrong in the login process".

    And now I'm tired.
    I have adhd and just want to play minecraft in my pomodoro break, but this took me half an hour.
    I refuse to pay for a new minecraft account.
    How many fking goats do I have to ritually slaughter for it to work, microsoft??
