Minecraft for windows + launcher play demo issue

Hi Bug1642! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

If you see a play demo means that you are trying to play the java edition but what you purchased is the Windows edition, on the launcher you have the Java, Dungeons and Bedrock options on the left panel

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I have searched Minecraft for Windows on the store and all it comes up with is "Minecraft for Windows Starter Collection" and "Minecraft for Windows + Launcher" I do not own the starter collection, as I am redirected to pay £25 pounds when I click on it, and the Minecraft for Windows + Launcher simply takes me to the launcher when i click play.

Go to Minecraft website and download the Windows 7/8 launcher. Try playing the game using it. The Windows 10 launcher is having this "play demo" bug for some users.

Let me know if this works.

Search for ''Minecraft Launcher'' in the Xbox app, install, log in with your Microsoft account on the launcher, select Minecraft For Windows and install.
