Hello Guys,

I just upgraded my windows 8.1 to windows 10 and I'm unable to play Minecraft.

Whenever I click play it shows an error/crash report.

You're PC is not supported for Windows 10. Check hardware compatibility BEFORE upgrading.

Downgrade Windows or get a new PC.

My cousin have corei3 and is worst than my pc.
Still minecraft works for him
And he got windows 10.

Java don't support Windows 10

Solutions:

1. Download Minecraft from Windows Shop (IDK what its call)

- But lag

-Still like MCPE

2. Downgrade Windows for Setting

I hope if some Solution can help you.

Core i3 doesn't mean nothing without the bin name. Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake, etc.

Sandy Bridge HD2000/3000 Graphics were abandoned by Intel for Windows 10. (Mostly marketing reasons, because Intel does that.)

You will need to roll back to Windows 7 or 8. Or get a new laptop/desktop given you have a Laptop and they have no hardware upgrade options.

No, that is way not correct.
