In my screenshot of the old launcher it wants me to switch to my old Mojang account that was migrated. I see a lot of other people having this issue and I thought I would provide my personal experience and screenshots to help others with the same problem. To my knowledge my Microsoft account does not have any age restrictions or an under aged birth dates that could be preventing any games being added to my library. But on the Xbox app theres a button to play or install it that says its installed but it still prompts me with a screen that lets me choose what to play and java edition is the only one that does not have a play button next to it. On the Microsoft store the java and bedrock game says that I can play it with game pass or I can buy it for $29.99. My profile says that I own bedrock edition but it says I have to buy java. I then logged into to see if there were any ways I could redeem a java account or download the bundled game but there were only links to the Microsoft store and other ways of purchasing the game. I thought this could be a bug with the new launcher and I tried creating my account on the old launcher but instead of the play button saying 'Play' it says 'Play demo', meaning I cant even attempt to make my account there. But here's where I have an issue, when I click play and try to type in my username for java I am unable to play it because a popup in the top right shows up every time saying Unable to create profile. The new launcher lets me open and play bedrock edition just fine. I do not recall seeing a popup saying 'You already own bedrock, Get java edition as a bonus'. When I found out I could get java edition for free I tried to do what the official Mojang page said to and I followed the steps installing the new launcher and signing into it with the same Microsoft account.

I can still use this account to this day to play Minecraft bedrock on my pc and other compatible devices. I have a Microsoft account for bedrock edition that was purchased when Minecraft bedrock was was still called Minecraft pocket edition.

Can you get bedrock edition on pc
