Trying to transfer windows 10 minecraft to a new computer

Hi there! A bit ago I switched to a new computer. Because of that, I still needed to download my windows 10 minecraft. Because I got the code from buying the Java version of minecraft, I can't get it again from it being a one time use code. I would of emailed mojang itself to ask about this, but from seeing that they are now just responding to emails from May 23rd, I don't want to wait that long. I don't know if I'm just able to bring it over via flashdrive, or if there is something I'm missing. Thanks if you can help

Hi ShadowTux, I'm Bill.

You can just install Minecraft for Windows 10 as usual on your new PC, since the code you redeemed is linked to your account. You can install and play it on your new PC, and it will recognize that you own the game.

So you can simply install Minecraft from the Windows Store and it should work normally if you're signed into your account.

Please let me know if you need more help!
