About this video: This video is a complete guide on how to make a server in Minecraft Bedrock Edition. This will let you play Minecraft Bedrock Edition with your friends giving you a complete guide on Minecraft Bedrock server hosting and everything that you need to know to get create a server in Minecraft Bedrock Edition.
The first step of making a Minecraft Bedrock server is going to be downloading the Minecraft Bedrock Edition dedicated server file. This can be found at the link in the description above. Once you are there, find the “Minecraft Dedicated Server Software for Windows” section and click the that you agree to the EULA, after confirming you do. Then, click the green “Download” button, and the server software will start downloading for Minecraft Bedrock Edition.
After that, move the zip file you downloaded to your desktop. Then, right-click on this file, select “Extract” and the “Extract All”. The files will be extracted and a new folder will appear on your desktop. Open this folder, and all of your Minecraft Bedrock server files will be located within this folder.
Now, we will want to start your Minecraft Bedrock dedicated server by double-click on the “bedrock_server.exe” file. This will start your server. You may get a pop-up asking you to allow the Minecraft bedrock server through your firewall. You will want to do this and allow it through public and private networks.
Your Minecraft Bedrock server is now online. However, at this point, it can’t be joined. In order to join your Minecraft server in Bedrock Edition, you will need to port forward. First though, you need stop your server. Do this by typing “stop” in the server’s console. This will shut down the server properly in order make sure things on the server save when it is shutdown.
As far as port forwarding goes, you will need to forward the port 19132 on the TCP and UDP protocol. The process for port forwarding is different for every router, but in the video, we go over all of common terms and locations that port forwarding could be located on your router. It can be called everything from port forwarding to apps and gaming, and it can even hid behind, firewall, security, or admin tabs.
With that being said, once you have port forwarded your Minecraft Bedrock Edition server, you are good to go join it. This can be done using your public IP address found at the link above.
At this point though, you now know how to make server in Minecraft Bedrock Edition. If you have any questions about how to create a Minecraft Bedrock server, let us know in the comments. We will try our best to help you out.

Bro how to downgrade the server version?

[@minecraftSkipperYT]

dose not work😭😭😭😭

[@CaptainCanadia_]

My public IP address keeps changing for the PC running the server. How can I change it to a static IP address so I don't keep having to set up a monitor for it and finding the new IP address to send to my friends?

[@Tropic_top]

What if I don't have router 😢

[@KingRoyGBiv]

Man THANK YOU your videos have helped create great times with my friends on minecraft! So straightforward and easy to follow

[@tingzhang4608]

You are going to get hacked

[@GamingInYellow]

why are you so underrated, the way you explained it is so clear and straight forward unlike other youtubers who takes at least 10 mins to do the introduction 😭 your a lifesaver thank you.

[@samonge7]

Thank you so much, I couldn't connect to my server and was getting a red icon for my ping but after i copy and pasted that note from the guide into my CMD it worked!

[@nerorory2322]

Hi! Can I ask where you copied the note and what the CMD is? I’m having this issue too.

[@jabon472]

Where you copied that note

[@doubledaredangames]

Worked like a charm Commenting for the Algorithm. Cheers!

[@s.m.rgamerz1611]

bro i had a question, in curse forge 1.20.2 java edition,i installed freecam how to use free cam now? i can see it in my mods folder but how to use it

[@nurburg924s]

Hi, my daughter and I enjoy playing Minecraft together. We are playing a survival world that started 12 years with her older brother on the Xbox 360. We now have a couple of RTX laptops and have converted the world save to windows edition. We want to play with shaders. My question is are we better to just play by running the game and using open to lan or setting up a Minecraft server as per this video? Cheers, love the videos you do they have been super useful to us x

[@TùngLâmNguyễn-z1c]

Java or bedrock, if bedrock you have to connect to the same wifi as the pc or laptop, for java same things. Enjoy

[@TheLui.]

Actually thanks man! You really helped me out. Even tho i thought it isnt going to work because of my router i tried for days and i somehow did it.

[@calamity4392]

All this just for a Minecraft server 😢

[@fortich_official]

Thats not even hard to do

[@masteryall3933]

Mine, cant join the world as "Unable to join world"

[@mr.wright6636]

Is there a way to set up stories on the server like you have in realms? Would love to set up my own "realm" server

[@davidbeam963]

Could you show how to do this for Starlink router cuz when type in the gateway it just says im logged and and I can't even do anything on the page too. So it would be nice to know how to do that.

[@Teirrkith]

Ya I have this issue too and it would be nice to know how to set it up with star link.

[@LoudNuggetOffl]

Mine keeps saying something about directory. And error reading files. But i did it perfectly. Any advice?

[@Extrafresch]

A Prerequisite I might add (as I am doing this while watching this video) is that you may need to download and install the Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version (x64) in order to run the bedrock server installer if you are hosting this in an on-premises hypervisor environment (ESXi/Hyper-V).

[@spec8888]

get this dude to 500k hes at 499k 😭

[@ArtByAhri]

your dedication and quality of tutorials is amazing. keep up the good work 💕

[@Munky332]

Here's a question, if I run a local server with mods, with my PC, will cross-play still work, like if using a nintendo switch to connect (via the "DNS server trick")?

[@lifewh1]

ty for the guide, very easy to follow even for a non english speaker like me

[@Ismail20773]

Can you still earn achievements with this typical servers?

[@special_gifft]

Can you make a video for pocketmine or nukkit?

[@xledbetter95]

I got it to working with this tutorial. About a week of have it up and running. The server says unable to connect to world. Please help

[@JusterGames]

Does this work with ps4 using bedrock together?

[@aandc_0]

I'd assume you'd be able to join as long as the version is the same and its bedrock edition, but the server has to be run on a computer.

[@hiveraids]

Does anyone know how to switch the generated world of the server out for a world file of your own? I've tried removing the old "Bedrock level" world file and replacing it with my own, but when I load the server it just creates another new "Bedrock level" seed

[@787XTX]

Yes go to server properties file and change the name of “Bedrock level” to the name of the world your using and also delete “Bedrock level” in world files and place your world file

[@itsyaboyjake8726]

when i try to change the protocol it doesn't let me choose both or tcp/udp only them individually could i do them separately ?

[@Tiktok-lb9nt]

Yes u can

[@avura3374]

is it possible to set the server to specific bedrock version?

[@ragetremblay]

Thank you!

[@Ballistic_Circuit]

Hi, I have a problem when using shaders in minecraft java, i get 100+ fps with complimentary shaders on ultra settings, but the moment i hold a weapon or try to atack with swords ( with the better combat mod ) my fps drops to below 30 Are there any fix for playing with shaders on the better combat mod, because the server i play on uses it The same happens with all shaders that i use

[@jaspercaborn8770]

Will this server update mc versions or will it break at the next hotfix?

[@787XTX]

I have a question how do I set the max players that can join to 300 I have a good pc btw

[@MomoTheGhost12]

Can I do this on my phone or do I need to use a computer

[@BobBob-qg4lo]

I think you could technically do this, but there's a lot of restrictions in place from phone companies to obtain stuff like your ipv4 ip adress, which is needed to host a server locally like this. Also whether or not your phone could actually handle running the server is pretty unlikely. Unfortunately I don't think it's gonna be possible. There are free server hosting websites you could access through your phone tho, basically the same thing but the hosting company actually hosts the sever with way better hardware than the average phone will have.

[@MomoTheGhost12]

@BobBob-qg4lo thanks for the answer could you please tell me some of the hosting companies that you were talking about if its not to much trouble

[@gabekillion6002]

I get an error trying to join saying “you need to authenticate Microsoft services” anyone know how to fix it?

[@winterattack8462]

same

[@Jonathan_Grider]

What is the error coming from? Because it could be windows defender, windows firewall, firewall settings… it could be a whole slew of different programs/apps blocking access to the server. Or you may just need to log into your Microsoft account and allow the application access. Need more information about your situation.

[@azalsa8354]

thank you keep the good stuff up

[@vlachrie]

Can i ask u this: Does the server still run if i shut down the computer?

[@aandc_0]

No, your computer is the thing processing the server.

[@DaieM]

Is that any way to download older version of bedrock dedicated server?

[@theminecraft_void]
