Quick Steps to Update Minecraft on Windows

Updating Minecraft on Windows depends on which version you’re playing. You’ve got two versions: Minecraft Java Edition and Minecraft Windows 10 Edition. Let’s tackle them both!

For Minecraft Java Edition, open the Minecraft Launcher. If there’s an update, the launcher will either download it automatically or prompt you to click an ‘Update’ button. Easy-peasy!

For Minecraft Windows 10 Edition, head over to the Microsoft Store. Click the three dots in the top-right corner and select ‘Downloads and updates’. Then, click ‘Get updates’ and voila! If there’s an update for Minecraft, it’ll start downloading.
