      When a friend sends me an invite to Minecraft Preview on Windows PC, it doesn't allow me to accept nor join without having to install the Normal version instead of the preview.

      When I had the normal version installed, it would open that one and take the invite there even though I only have the preview version on, and the world my friend is in doesn't show at all either in the preview, but shows in the normal version. (While of course I can't join as it says my client is outdated.)

      I have uninstalled it just for trying to see if I can take the invite, but then it asked me to still download Minecraft Windows 10 as shown in the video.

      This is a brief video to show the issue, I uploaded it to Google Drive as it's too big to be added in the attachments here:

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Open Minecraft Beta on an Android device
      2. Have Minecraft Preview and Minecraft open on a Windows PC
      3. Send an invite to the Windows PC from your Android device

      Observed result:
      The invite always opens in the normal version or the Microsoft Store opens its download page.

      Expected result:
      The invite opens in Minecraft Preview or the Microsoft Store opens its download page.
