Minecraft Error...?

Question

hi... so like around November 2025, I bought mc in my phone. I thought it would also come out as purchased in my pc since I used the same account. But instead of the download/install button I was expecting to see in the Minecraft Launcher, it showed the "Buy Now" button.

I reinstalled and reloaded the launcher. Though, unfortunately, this didn't help... I also checked my order history, and the Minecraft I bought wasn't there...?

I actually got to install Minecraft bedrock in my pc back in December/January. I had to delete it due to storage reasons, soo I'm redownloading it... The problem is this error...?

Hi!

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Based from you information, buying Minecraft on your phone does NOT automatically give you the PC version.

When you bought Minecraft on your phone, you likely bought Minecraft Bedrock (mobile version) via Google Play or App Store and that will be tied to your Google Play / Apple ID and NOT your Microsoft account. (Mobile and PC version is totatly separate)

It's intersting thatyou mentioned “I actually got to install Minecraft bedrock in my pc back in December/January.” It could be that you were logged into a different Microsoft account that actually owns Minecraft game.

Look at the top left with the name LIKA 1114, are you sure you have that account when the game worked before? Chances are it could be a different account since there are no records on the order history.
