Are you wondering about how to keep your Minecraft game up-to-date on Windows 11? You’ve come to the right place!
Let’s dive into the simple steps you need to follow to ensure you’re always playing the latest version of Minecraft on your Windows 11 machine.
Quick Steps to Update Minecraft on Windows 11
Updating Minecraft on Windows 11 is a breeze! If you’re using the Minecraft Java Edition, just open the Minecraft Launcher. It should check for updates automatically. If there’s an update available, just click the ‘Update’ button, and you’re set! For Minecraft Windows 10 Edition, open the Microsoft Store, click on the three dots in the top right corner, and select ‘Downloads and updates’. From there, click ‘Get updates’ and any available updates for Minecraft should start automatically.
If the game doesn’t update automatically in the launcher, you might need to manually start the update. This is rare but can happen. Just follow the prompts in the launcher or the Microsoft Store.
