Hiya! So just started having this issue this evening. I was playing minecraft normally last night, and then this evening when i get on to get on my server, it says it cannot authenticate me. So i've spent a few hours troubleshooting that. Then something I found recommended I log out of the minecraft launcher and log back in. Now its saying that I need to buy minecraft: java edition (I do own it, and have purchase proof of it). So 1 issue has now turned into 2 issues lol. Any suggestions? Thanks

Hiya, just checking in if anyone else has had this issue? I saw some sources to say try giving it a few days, currently I am trying that.

There are known issues with Minecraft and the latest update.

I did notice that, so that may be related to the "buy now" issue i'm getting. But all of my friends seem to be able to login fine right now, its just me. So doesn't feel related to the current issue.
I'll still try the repair tool it suggests.
Repair tool unfortunately did nothing 😦
I cant call xbox, cant use chat online, man this is getting old lol. Tried on my internet and on my phone while using cell tower. X.X
I did however finally find my order ID when i bought minecraft way back in 2015. So I have proof of that at least 😛
