- I have bought the game
- I have downloaded the game

Now what?
I can't figure out how to install or run the game. What program should I use? I have already downloaded winRAR and Java. I have downloaded the free version of the game, and that works. The downloaded full version of the game has a white page for an icon in my Minecraft folder. Preferably it would be a icon of some sort, Java, winRAR or anything. On the website it says: You've already bought the game, thank you.

Well, I can't play it. So how do I do? Please help me!

you have to go to downloads and after selecting

the icon you have to PRESS it THEN it automatically downloads the files....

ALSO if you want to delete the files then get them back,(maybe after a reskin) go to %appdata% roaming .minecraft and delete that file then start the program up, it will automatically reinstall! hope this helped!!!

Thank you for your respons

Thank you for your respons but I'm sorry but I feel pretty dumb. I can't really understand what you mean. As I said:
- I can play offline (not being able to craft or see nighttime
- I can play multiplayer online with others on servers and stuff
- But, I can't play the "story mode" where you do craft different items and see nighttime

And again I have bought the game and downloaded the free version. The paid for, and downloaded from the website, file is not possible to play or anything.

What am I doing wrong? Could someone please help me from start to finish? A guide "How to get the paid version for stupids", if you will.

you dont have to download it to play it, there are two options:
'on browser' option
and
'download option'

make sure you download the

make sure you download the EXE if you are in windows

otherwise the .JAR must be run with java command :

java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp MinecraftLauncher.jar

there is nothing to install really...
the only tihng you need is java on java dot com.

then the Minecraft.exe just run by itself... no install...

I have downloaded the EXE but

I have downloaded the EXE but that file is not compatible with any program on my computor. And the .JAR file only works online in single and multiplayer (the mode where you can't craft tools, where night never falls a s o. I can only access the world where it is snowing. I can't even chop trees in this "world". I want the full version wich I found on Youtube, where everyone are building houses and crafting torches, swords, glass a s o.

It feels like I'm missing something. What?

Thank you for all your answers, really appreciate it!
