Hello,

Is it possible to transfer a world developed in the Minecraft educational version to the Minecraft Java edition? My students do not have anymore access to the trial and my institution needs more time to arrange educational licenses, so I was wondering if there is an option to have their world transferred if they buy the full version.

many thanks

  Hi Costas, 

  Officially, there is no support for converting worlds created in the Education Edition to other versions of the game like bedrock and Java. 

  However, you can check out this discussion here. There is some indications that it's possible, but I haven't seen it successfully demonstrated myself. 

  I would be interested to see the results!

  You could export your world, and then import it into another account that still has the trial active.

  While you are waiting for your school to work out your licenses, you can start an Office 365 trial and create new accounts for your students from the admin center, so they can play. Note that accounts created through your free trial tenant are NOT going to be connected to your school, so once your school has your licenses set up you'll have to export your world from the trial account and import it back to your official school account.

  By the way, since you are the admin of your free trial, you can create as many new accounts as you need for your students as replacements for when they use their trial logins up. Just be sure to back up your worlds regularly so you do not lose access to them in the event your trial runs out without you noticing.

  Hi there at Fiel Esprit, thank you for your feedback and advice! However, Bedrock and Java worlds, and Minecraft: Education Edition worlds are not officially compatible due to several reasons, including version parity. I would likewise like to remind you that creating multiple trial accounts for those reasons violate our terms of service.

  There is a way but you have to do a lot of research and use MCC tool chest to change some of the worlds code around to change it.
