This is just getting a launcher , so it's completely legal and there is no piracy in this video and any further ado .
Let's go and jump into this .
If you're in need of a Minecraft server , then look no further than Apex hosting .
There's a link in the description and the pin comment to go start your own deed of protected Minecraft server with instant setup and one click install mod packs .
There's also a tonne more feature as well .
Thank you so much .
Apex , Let's go and get into this video .
Here we are on the old Minecraft launcher , and you probably notice at the bottom it says we'll be providing ongoing support for this launcher .
But there's also a new and improved launcher .
Download it now .
So I will show you exactly how how to get this new launcher .
And there are two ways of doing this .
The first way you can go and click on the Download it now , button .
Or you can come and close off the launcher for now .
And all you want to do is come to the bottom left .
We've got the search icon and all you want to do is go and search from Microsoft Store just like so .
As you can see , it's already found it .
And I'm gonna go and click on here just like now .
And then it's gonna take a minute to load .
And I'm going in on this so you can see exactly what I'm doing .
And all you want to do is go and search for Minecraft .
So I'm gonna type it in just like this , and I'm gonna go and click Search and here we are .
So as you can see , we've gone and got this here .
So it's gonna take a minute to load and the first thing you want to do before you go any further is make sure you're signed into a Microsoft account through that .
Come to the top , right ?
And we've got this little icon here and it says Profile .
Click on it and there's going to be a sign in button I'm already signed in into my Microsoft account and just a quick note as well .
You may also have a Microsoft account for your Minecraft account .
That doesn't matter .
You can use a different account as well .
And if you're not signed in , it may not allow you to go and download the launcher .
So all you want to do is scroll down and come and click and get just like so .
And it's now circling as you can see and quick note .
This is completely free as well .
And then you're gonna go and get a Windows kie pop up Mine says host process for Windows services .
Unfortunately , I can't go and record that , And as you can see , it's starting the download and it's now downloading and it's around 45 megabytes , and it's downloading it pretty quickly .
But that will depend on your Internet speed , and it's now installing as well .
And just a quick note .
Even with this new launch , you still have access to the dot Minecraft folder , which , if you didn't know it is where you can install things like mods and you can also get a new shade is in this Minecraft launcher as well .
It's very similar .
Just a new version from the Microsoft Store .
Then all you want to do is wait for Minecraft to finish installing .
Unfortunately , it may not always be that straightforward .
If you're on the download or in the store page , wait there for around five minutes as it may still be doing downloads in the background , which you can't see and then go and try these steps .
In my case , it didn't actually go install and what I actually did .
I went and clicked on my library , and I went and scrolled down it and you're gonna go and notice when you first go and get a launch or a game off of the Microsoft store , you need to go and download something called gaming Services .
So that took a minute or two , and I did notice the gaming services was actually frozen .
So all I did was was close .
The Microsoft store and I went to open up the Xbox APP .
The Xbox app is pretty much always on your windows computer now .
So all you want to do is search in Boxx and make sure you go and click on Xbox Console Companion .
And then what I did was was come down to the second one here , which is my games and scroll down to M .
And as you can see , you've got these two options here .
We've got Minecraft launcher and Minecraft launcher .
The new one from the Microsoft store is this one with the new sort of updated Earth block , and when you go and click on it , it's gonna go and take a minute to load .
And as you can see , this is from Mola Microsoft Studios , and it's the one from the Windows Store , as if you go and try and click on this one .
You can't because that's not from the Windows store .
So there we go .
That's essentially how I went and fixed it if you have any issues .
And after closing the Mao store and opening the Xbox app , it seemed to then go and sort of refresh everything and everything had actually downloaded .
But I do recommend waiting for five minutes or so .
That's what I did .
And then I went and closed it because otherwise it may still be doing downloads .
Even though it doesn't look like it , you just gotta be patient with it .
But anyways , then once you've gotten fixed it and the download is finished , you can either go and click the play button here , or you can just come down to the bottom , as you usually would , and you can go and search Minecraft .
Um , and as you can see , we've got the Minecraft .
Launch is the old one , and the new one is a bit further down here .
I'm gonna go and click on it , and then it's going to go and launch up just like so , and I can close off of the store and then all you need to do is log in .
So you can either sign with Microsoft or your mojo account , depending if you're going to migrate to your account yet And here we go .
You just need to sign in using the Xbox app .
As you can see , this is me .
And you can go and switch account if you'd like .
Um , I'm gonna go and click Let's play .
You mean to switch account if your Xbox account is a different to your MOJ account , But my Xbox and my mojo account are on the same one .
but you need to switch over .
Um , but that's really simple Click switch account .
But anyways , I can go and click .
Let's play just like this , and it's now saying Please wait and it's now gonna load up the launcher and I can go and click on close just like so .
And here we are on the brand new launcher .
It looks very similar .
And as you can see , I've still got my opt for my forge and my this latest release as well .
And that's it .
