Minecraft Windows 10 non-beta v1.11.4 mysteriously changed to Minecraft Windows 10 Beta v1.12.0.6.

On PC1 Account, I had Minecraft Windows 10 non-beta v1.11.4, purchased on 02/2019 for $26.99.  But the non-beta version mysteriously changed to Minecraft Windows 10 Beta  v1.12.0.6 on the PC1 Account. The PC1 Account is the only account on the PC with Minecraft.  On the PC1 Account, I have not joined the Xbox Insider Hub or joined the Minecraft Windows 10 Beta program. I do have another PC with a different user account which has the Minecraft Windows 10 Beta v1.12.0.6. This PC also has the Windows 10 JAVA Edition.  All was okay on both PCs until after Windows Update v1809 Build 17763.503. Now, I cannot get rid of the beta version on the PC1 Account. I have tried all the previous suggestions to no avail.   I have tried the Windows Store Troubleshooter which finds nothing wrong. I have tried SFC /scannow, but it does not find any errors.  The Microsoft Store shows that Minecraft was purchased for the 2 accounts on the 2 PCs.  Help!

Update 20190528: I removed the 2nd PC's account from the PC1 Account's Windows 10 Accounts, Email & Accounts, Accounts used by other apps. Also, in Microsoft Accounts Settings for the 2nd PC's account in Devices, Manage your download devices, Apps and games; I removed the PC1 Acounts PC. Finally, I deleted the beta version from the PC1 Account; rebooted the PC; and installed Minecraft which was v1.11.4. This all could be a coincidence and did nothing to resolve the issue. It is possible Microsoft removed the PC1 Account from the beta. I'm glad to have the correct version on the PC1 Account. 


Hey there, Allen305

Welcome to the Microsoft community forums. 

It is a bit strange how the Minecraft Beta addition was installed if your not apart of the Beta. Can you confirm that both versions of Minecraft, the beta and the non-beta have been updated?

Please can you tell me what version your currently running?

It could be that the beta addition has not been updated and the release preview is now available to the public. 

You can download the Xbox Insider Hub onto your device and sign into your account. You can then check to make sure that you are not registered on your first account. If you are, your able to leave the program by selecting Minecraft and leave. 

Once you have done this, please uninstall Minecraft and re install Minecraft onto your computer/device again. This should be a non beta version. 

Hope this helps,

@Nathan Roberts, thanks for the response. I have spent a good portion of time today on the phone talking to both Xbox and Microsoft Support. Microsoft Support connected via remote to my PC1 Account computer. Ms Support verified: I was playing non-beta v1.11.4 at 20:16 on 2019/05/26 via last saved game export;  that I own Minecraft Windows 10 Bedrock on the PC1 Account; the PC1 Account was not in the Xbox Insider Hub program; and for an unexplained reason,  Minecraft was changed to a beta version 1.12.0.6 on Sunday, 2019/05/26 at 20:16. 

Currently, the PC1 Account computer has no versions of Minecraft. The PC1 Account is the only account on the PC.  The only user logged on to Xbox Live, the Microsoft Store, and Microsoft.com is the PC1 Account. As I mentioned in my aforementioned post, the PC1 Account has never had a beta version. Minecraft Bedrock was updated, v1.11.4, successfully on Saturday, 2019/05/25 on the PC1 Account.   I have a Minecraft Windows 10 Bedrock Beta v1.12.0.6 on another PC. On the 2nd PC, I joined Xbox Insider Hub with a totally different Microsoft account. I have three Minecraft licenses: 2 Windows 10 Bedrock;  and a Windows 10 JAVA Edition. 

The Ms Support person via remote session: installed and launched the Xbox Insider Hub app;  joined and un-joined the Xbox Insider Hub app; downloaded and launched Minecraft which was beta version, and finally, closed the Xbox Insider Hub Account which he had created; and uninstalled Minecraft beta; and reinstalled Minecraft beta. Also, Ms Support imported the last v1.11.4 export, but it was apparent the world did not come from the beta version (the player was embedded in solid blocks).  The Ms Support person connected to Xbox Support person via 3 way call.  The Xbox Support said there had been other customers with a similar issue, non-beta to beta. The Xbox Support could only offer the workaround solution: join Xbox Insider Hub and un-join. Also, both support persons suggested I complete a Mojang.com Support form. I received a Microsoft Case number which will be good for 30 days.  

I really think the Minecraft Beta problem relates to the Windows Update v1809,  Build 17763.503. This build has caused issues with viewing locally networked PCs, so it is not a stretch to think there maybe other issues.  Unfortunately, I cannot play Minecraft Beta with my non-beta worlds, because none of the exported worlds will work. Best wishe :-)

Hey there, 

I will see what I can find out about this, as others are having some other problems with Minecraft and joining folk on servers too, which needs looking into.
