So I recently bought a new PC with MineCraft pre-installed and there was some servers on the list since the computer is second hand. I deleted some of the servers except one which is the Pika-Network. I got some new servers onto the list but it never works and just says
"Failed to connect to the server
Failed to login: Invalid session (Try restarting your game)"
I have tried restarting the game and I have searched on Google and YouTube for answers but none of them will work.

EpicLJBWhat do you mean by re-download and how do I do it?


How did you receive Minecraft in the first place?

My dad got me a new computer a few months ago and minecraft was on there. I logged out of the account that was already logged in and started playing

If it's a "new pc" minecraft wouldn't be pre-installed nor would it have any servers on the list.

Uninstall minecraft and then re-install it, try to format the hard drive, it may seem that your "new" pc could easily have some malware or keyloggers on it.

ALWAYS wipe the hard drive of any pc you get, pre-used.

^good point. Go to you virusscanner or windows firewall, and turn them off for a while. if it works then, ask parents/peers or similar people around you with computer knowledge to configure it so it allows Minecraft.

first of, what is your OS.
Second off, have you tried any servers from anywhere but that list.
third, did that minecraft account come with a login code?
Because to be able to connect to servers you need to be logged in.
should you not have a login code, contact mojang about it. That may be a good idea in any case.
it might also be a good idea to inform them of the model of computer as well as the shop/website/person you bought it from.
