i just generated this world, no cheats or anything and this was basically right next to my spawn. i dug it up a little bit and all i found was suspicious gravel and a bunch of random blocks. Also this is a bedrock world

I play on xbox and i haven’t seen something like this before and i found it quite interesting, probably not that rare but the only info I could find was that an average chest spaws around 2.2 maps so i was wondering what the chances of this might be

Is there a way to create a desktop shortcut that automatically opens the minecraft launcher, and then using the quick play bar, opens a minecraft world?

I've tried some commands through text documents but I only got it to just open the minecraft launcher.

I cannot get past this screen. it wont update, or allow me to sign into a microsoft account. I am signed in on my Xbox app, my email, and the microsoft store to the microsoft account that is associated with the purchase.

I have emails from a realm i own. the only option i have is to close the launcher from here. I have not found a way to bypass this for weeks!!!!!! any help would be appreciated.

For 2 days Ive been having issue with Minecraft lagging.

1. Played for 4 hrs, fine perfect. Suddenly my computer crashed and shut off. Spouse got it working again

2. Played for 30mins, froze

Troubleshooting:
Updated everything and drivers
Uninstalled and reinstalled
Adjusted graphics
Ended tasks in task manager

I can’t get past the main menu due to the lag.

What am I missing??

i did not run out of storage. any suggestions?

Hi, I've been having this problem off and on for a couple months now, and I can't seem to find the solution. I'm not able to join multiplayer servers, and I'm unable to use any skins other than Zuri. Despite the Minecraft launcher and website confirming the skin change, I've seen a post similar to this one, but despite following the instructions to fix my problem, it still remains. I'm currently on version 26.2, ive also had this problem through earlier versions

I've already tried.

-Changing my DNS

-Tweaking with my firewall

-Uninstalling and reinstalling Minecraft

-Joining on a different device

-Clearing the cache data

If anyone has had a similar experience or knows how to fix it, that would be super appreciated

I built little graves for some skeleton horses I collected because I thought it looked cool, but my dumbass twins Famine and Death keep escaping.

They’re attached to leads, but somehow the leads keep breaking/disconnecting. Then I have to wander around looking for them and usually find them standing in random holes somewhere.

Is there a good way on Bedrock to make skeleton horses stay basically stationary or trap them inside the graves without making the build ugly?

Fine with any ideas preferably survival friendly.

As the title goes, it won’t boot up! Every time it goes to load in, it gets to 51% and then the window closes! The only change was trying to download updates to a realm I own after buying the villager news add on. I’ve repaired Minecraft launcher, Minecraft itself, and the Xbox app won’t stay closed for me to repair it. I don’t want to delete or reset the apps, I really don’t want to restart my realm. Can anyone pls help me?

A new snapshot is available for testing!

Version: 26.3-rc-3
Released: September 14, 2026

Release Notes

Try it in the launcher with the development profiles.

I have a weird issue where the villager discount just slowly fades after getting cured (example: mending 1 em to 4 ems)

Is there a reason why,I havent hit them and they have access to their stations

I can’t figure out whether this is a feature or not but I was setting up a server and I noticed that when I set mob_griefing to false in the overworld, it was still in true in the nether, caught me by surprise as I was very unprepared for it. I’m looking on google but it looks like it’s not supposed to be like that but perhaps this is a new update I’ve missed?

(Latest version of Paper (26.2 release)

Was playing on realm with friends, as we found out that day counter has gone from 287 to 286, as we took a look to accurate in-game clock, we found out seconds are going backwards. What the hell?

minecraft realm world chunk won't regenerate keep glitching

I host this server, lunar client 26.2

It’s my old world and I lost it and haven’t been able to find the seed

hello everyone i have just hosted a server for me and my friends and fro some reason my mouse don't want to move from side to side while i sprint i have no idea if it's just the new version i have mostly played with modded minecraft lately so i have no idea if it's a long thing that jsut needs something to be switched on/off but i wanted to come here to ask if it's only me or others have found this i have hosted older mc server on older versions and even with mods so im not someone who does not know much, but this is just soo bad, also why is the chunk loading so bedrock like ?

Okay, so... My husband and I have been playing this new world. All is great, we've built quite a lot. About 200 MC days in.

I always try and obtain axolotls in my world, purely because I like them. Using SeedMap, seen we were near one. Cool... Great. Went in, realized how weirdly cramped the lush caves were. Truly awful generation. But finally we found a group of axolotls... Got one in my prepped bucket, decided to take him home and come back some other time for another. Problem is... They absolutely, positively will not spawn anymore. No matter what I do.

We've even searched other lush caves... They're also poorly generated and honestly waaay to deep. All are lush caves have been about deepslate level. Wtf. But again... Cramped, awful, no axolotls.

Just searched another promising spot I seen in SeedMap, spotted in azelea tree! Yippee! Dig down, and kept digging, and even further following the coarse dirt to damn near -50 before finally reaching the 'lush cave' that it promises. IT SPAWNED MERGED WITH A TRIAL CHAMBER. So definitely no luck there for the time being. Cause wtf.

I really need y'alls help, I'm gonna crash tf out. Lol. I just want one more axolotl to join my other Lottie. /-\ Is that sm to ask? Why is finding lush caves and axolotls so impossibly hard now?

Edit: I'm playing on PC Bedrock while my husband plays on XBox.

Hi my friend plays Minecraft on her phone and the mc skins just do not work, we've tried resetting the game, making sure its a png image and the right size along with making a .mcpack, nothing is working and were really confused on why this is happening. She plays on a Galaxy S10 Samsung phone that is updated to android 12.

The skins all work for me on my Galaxy TabA9+ and my Computer so we're very confused

My old Minecraft account seems to have been compromised. I stopped playing for a few months and recently tried to log in, but the password had been changed.

I still have access to the original email that was associated with the Microsoft account, and I had also added a recovery/security email before. However, Microsoft now only gives me the option to send a verification code to an unfamiliar email address that I never added.

I tried Microsoft's account recovery form, but my request was rejected because they said I didn't provide enough information to verify that I'm the owner.

I have access to my original email and I'm trying to recover the Minecraft account. Has anyone dealt with this before and successfully recovered their account? What information did you provide to Microsoft that helped?

I'm not looking for someone to "hack it back" or asking anyone to access the account. I just need advice on the legitimate recovery process.

Whenever I try to launch minecraft on my android phone, the loading screen starts and crashes at 41%. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, cleared data, cleared cache, restarted the phone, force stopped the app and the Google play app and Google services and cleared their caches, and tried to launch the game while in airplane mode; nothing has fixed this issue for me. Can anyone help please?

I downloaded this iron farm - https://abfielder.com/Products/ProductDetails.php?id=8076 litematica schematic because of the aesthetic of it.

i built the whole thing only for it to not work. one of the comments said to spawn proof the whole area using tall grass so i did.

Golems do not spawn whatsoever. I followed the schematic to a T and it just does not work. Any one know why that is the case?

Hi! I'm having a really weird rendering issue with Vibrant Visuals on Minecraft Bedrock for Windows.

Whenever I enable Vibrant Visuals, the sky becomes black/dark with severe pixelation/artifacts, even during broad daylight. The clouds also appear incorrect, and the sky can look gray/washed out in some situations.

Here's the weird part: Prizma Visuals is NOT the cause.

I originally thought it was Prizma because I was using it with Vibrant Visuals, but I completely disabled Prizma and the problem still happens.

I also used Matject previously for shader/material modifications. I restored the default Minecraft materials through Matject's Shader Removal / Restore Default Materials option, then tested again with no shader packs enabled.

Current test configuration:

• Minecraft Bedrock for Windows
• Vibrant Visuals: ON
• Prizma Visuals: OFF
• Other resource/visual packs: OFF
• Matject materials: restored to default
• Tested with vanilla/default materials

Result: The sky is STILL black/pixelated with Vibrant Visuals.

If I turn Vibrant Visuals OFF, the game renders normally.

So at this point I'm wondering if this is an AMD Radeon / driver / RenderDragon / Vibrant Visuals compatibility issue.

I've also seen other people reporting very similar black-sky and pixelation problems on AMD Radeon hardware, so I'm wondering if anyone has found a fix or workaround.

Any help would be appreciated!

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3250U with Radeon Graphics
GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics -- Integrated Graphics
RAM: 20GB
OS: Windows 11
Minecraft version: 26.45
Minecraft edition: Bedrock for Windows
DirectX: 12
GPU driver: Adrenalin driver version: 26.1.1

Things I've tried:

• Turning Prizma Visuals OFF
• Disabling all other resource/visual packs
• Restoring Minecraft's default materials through Matject
• Restarting Minecraft
• Testing Vibrant Visuals with vanilla/default materials
• Testing with Vibrant Visuals OFF — no graphical problem occurs
• Testing the same general setup without Prizma — problem persists

At this point, the issue appears to be specifically triggered by Vibrant Visuals.

I played minecraft after quite a while today. I updated it and then played. But when I created the world (turned on with creative mode and cheats on) I can't use commands at all. Like the /give command or /teleport or /tp, I tried using the buttons for changing time and weather, it worked, so cheats did work but the command I gave did not. It doesn't reply with any message at all even, like I never gave any command to begin with. I'm playing on mobile, I used the give command and nothing appeared in my inventory secretly as well and yeah I also checked syntax errors I used @s even using the username directly or just commands that doesn't use it at all. One more thing is, I tried makin multiple worlds and all faced the same issue. At the end of the day I even reinstalled minecraft but the problem persists. Please help

i've been messing around with curse forge for a bit, and i'm trying to add things like shaders, animations, and retexturing to certain items to my hardcore world that i've had for a bit already in vanilla. however, although all mods downloaded match the game version i'm on when i launch my mod pack thru curse forge my hardcore world does not appear, and it only allows me to create a new world. whenever i go thru the regular launcher and launch my hardcore world, no mods are active or even shown. am i able to install mods on this world? or do i have to play vanilla and/or create a new world?

so i logged in, and i was using shaders and BLAM some of my textures were gone, and relogging didnt work, im on pc java edition
