Update: The Minecraft for Windows 10 giveaway program to owners of Minecraft Java Edition has ended as of 10/19/2018. You can read more about this.
Let me make a reservation right away that the ability to download for free Minecraft for Windows 10(previously this version was called Minecraft Windows 10 Edition) is only available to happy owners of regular Minecraft (If you are not one of them, then I suggest you read about it). That is, if you play Minecraft on a PC, you can get a free key for Minecraft for Windows 10. Pocket Edition versions (Android / iOS / Windows Phone) are not eligible for this promotion and will have to be purchased separately. In addition, you can only play if you have the Windows 10 operating system installed.
In order to get a free key for Minecraft for Windows 10 you need to do the following:
1. Log in to the Mojang website using your account: https://account.mojang.com/login
2. Here you will see an offer to get your copy of Minecraft for Windows 10 for free. Click the “Claim your free copy” button.
3. After this, you will see a message with a key, next to which there will be a “Redeem” button. Click on this button and you will be redirected to the Microsoft Live site. Here, enter your Microsoft account password and follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
4. That's all. You can now download Minecraft for Windows 10 for free from the Microsoft Store.
