Hello!

NEED HELP WITH YOUR NEW MICROSOFT ACCOUNT FOR MINECRAFT: JAVA EDITION? 

With the new changeover to Microsoft accounts for Minecraft: Java Edition, you
may encounter issues with your Microsoft account. For more information about the
migration see our FAQ article. If you have any Microsoft account login questions
or issues, please check out the following articles from Xbox and Microsoft as
they handle all account-related inquiries: 

 * Account & profile 
 * Manage account 

If you have a preexisting Microsoft account or you have already made a new one and need guidance, the following articles may help you set up and configure your account: 

 * Sign into Xbox 
 * How to add security info to your Microsoft account 
 * Reset or recover your lost Microsoft account password  
 * Change the email address or phone number for your Microsoft account  
 * Update your Microsoft account if you’re moving to a new country or region  
 * Reopen your Microsoft account  
 * Reset a forgotten Microsoft account password 


WHY DO I HAVE TO GO TO XBOX? 

Because you log in with your Microsoft account to play Minecraft, you will need to reach out to Microsoft for assistance with any account-related issues. Minecraft support is not able to access this information.  

However, if you have other issues that are not related to your Microsoft
account, contact Minecraft Support.
