minecraft problem

Question

I bought minecraft both java and bedrock editon in 1 bundle but it says i cant play java beacuse of family sharing. Is there a way removing it so i can play both java and bedrock.

Answer 1

Hello Markus Vällik, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Actually, Java accounts are individual only. Minecraft Java Edition does not support Microsoft family sharing or multi-player access from one purchase. Each family member needs their own paid Java account to play.

Bedrock Edition, in other hand, generally supports family play via Xbox/Microsoft family groups.

Answer 2

It seems that the issue you're experiencing with Minecraft Java Edition and family sharing may be related to the restrictions imposed by the Microsoft Store's product sharing model. Unfortunately, the context provided does not contain specific instructions on how to remove family sharing restrictions for Minecraft or how to enable access to both Java and Bedrock editions simultaneously.

To resolve this issue, you may need to check your Microsoft account settings or consult the Microsoft support documentation for guidance on managing family sharing settings. Additionally, you could consider reaching out to Microsoft support directly for assistance with your specific situation.
