Hi, I need help. I just bougth a new premium account and it's a microsoft account for minecraft. I can't use it for anything except to login on the minecraft.net site, not even Mojang. I can't play on this account, it says wrong email or password. Is it a problem with it being a Microsoft acc and not mojang? I can only login on site using the Microsoft option. Im sure that I bought a Java edition for pc. What should I do? Thanks in advance.

Hi Dors1a,
All new Minecraft Java purchases are linked to a Microsoft Account. It may sound silly, but please check the email linked to your Microsoft account to double-check you did purchase using this account. If it's correct, re-log into Minecraft.net and see if the first screen has an option to buy Minecraft Java Edition. If it doesn't, it means there is a Java Edition linked to that Microsoft Account. If this is the case, try resetting your Microsoft password.

When starting the java version of Minecraft, you should get to the following login screen which gives the option of logging in as either Microsoft or Mojang. If you are not getting to this screen, then there might be something amiss with your installation.
