Easy Steps to Update Minecraft on Windows
Updating Minecraft on Windows is a straightforward process. If you’re playing the Minecraft Windows 10 or Bedrock edition, the game usually updates automatically. If it doesn’t, you can manually check for updates through the Microsoft Store. Simply open the Microsoft Store, click on the three dots in the top right corner, select ‘Downloads and updates’, and then click ‘Get updates’.
For those playing the original Java Edition, you’ll update the game through the Minecraft Launcher. Open the launcher, and if there’s an update available, the ‘Update’ button will appear. Click it, and you’re all set. Remember, staying updated ensures you have the latest features and security updates.
