Where is Minecraft in Microsoft account?

To find Minecraft in your Microsoft account, you can go to the Microsoft Store app, sign in with the same account that owns Minecraft, choose My Library, find Minecraft, and click Install or Play. Your Minecraft purchase should be associated with your Microsoft account, allowing you to access and manage your game settings and progress through the Minecraft launcher and minecraft.net.
