Transfer Minecraft Windows 10 ownership to a different Windows 10 account
-
I previously bought Minecraft Windows 10 using my personal Windows account on my personal laptop in the Windows Store.
Now I want to let my nephew play it on his own laptop with his own Windows account.
Can I transfer my ownership to him so he can download and play it on his own laptop without paying for it again?

You cannot actually transfer the license, but you can "share" it and I think there are 2 things you can do here:
Sign in with your account on his own laptop and download the game. Then switch to his account and then check if they can play it. If not, see #2 below.
Add your nephew under a https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-online-safety/family-settings-app/add-someone-to-family-in-the-Xbox-Family-Setting-app . Login once with your account on their laptop so you can share your library and after that they can switch to their account and play the game as a shared game with family.
