Reinstalling Minecraft is as simple as uninstalling the game from your device and downloading it again from the store or launcher where you originally got it.
First, make sure to back up your saved games. For PC and Mac users, you’ll find your saves in the ‘Minecraft’ folder. Once backed up, you can safely uninstall Minecraft. Head to the Control Panel on PC, or use the Finder on Mac, to remove the game. For console and mobile users, head to your device’s application management settings.
