Minecraft 1.12.1?

I would like to add my server to Minecraft version 1.12.1. My friend bought the game from Mojang himself, everything works without problems. I bought it from Microsoft at the store. There the most current version is the 1.12.1. The server is designed for the version… If I want to add an external server there, this is not possible, the add Butten can't be clicked. (See image)

thank you for your help

Probably your friend has bought the Java Edition and you have the Windows 10 Edition…

This is because you own the Windows 10 Edition and the Windows 10 Edition is limited in contrast to Java Edition.

Therefore, Windows 10 version is also much cheaper than Java Edition. It is recommended that you buy the Java version of the game.

Why can't I add a server if the button exists?

These are 2 different versions

Ok, does the Windows 10 Starter Collection count?

Because it is an invalid address.

If you try to join your friend, it will not work.

He probably bought the Java Edition, not the Windows 10 edition

I think there are far too few servers for the Windows 10 Edition most servers are designed for certain versions of the Java Edition.

If you want to play the real Minecraft then the Windows 10 Edition is the wrong one.
