Hello HolyHosting users 🚀! In this guide, we’ll show you several methods to fix the “Invalid Session” error in Minecraft.

It’s worth trying each of the following methods, as they can fix almost every case! However, if nothing works, it could indicate an issue with Mojang’s authentication servers. There should be a different error message for this, but many players report seeing the “Invalid Session” error whenever the system fails or is in maintenance mode.

1. Restart the Game / Launcher🔄

The most common way to fix the Invalid Session error is to restart Minecraft and the launcher. This usually resolves the issue, as restarting helps reset the authentication system. Simply close both the game and the launcher, then open them again. After that, join any server to see if it worked.

Tip✔️: As an extra step, you can make sure the game is fully closed in the Task Manager.


2. Log Out and Log Back In 🔐

If restarting doesn’t help, try logging out of your Microsoft account and then logging back in. This forces the system to revalidate your credentials, giving you the best chance to fix the “Invalid Session” error in Minecraft. Make sure to use the same account when trying this solution.

Common Issue⚠️: Sometimes the password is forgotten when trying to log in again.


Solution✔️: Make sure you have your password handy, or use a password manager to avoid any issues.

3. Create an Offline Server 🌐

In cases where nothing else works, or if you’re using a cracked account, you can enable offline mode on your Minecraft server. This effectively bypasses the authentication system for connections, resolving the Invalid Session error.

Common Issue⚠️: Offline servers may have limited functionality.Solution✔️: Use offline servers only as a last resort and make sure you understand the limitations.

How to Prevent Invalid Sessions in Minecraft🚫🔁

When fixing the “Invalid Session” error in Minecraft, it’s best to take steps to prevent it from happening again. We strongly recommend avoiding running multiple instances of the game with different accounts at the same time, as this can trigger the issue.


Additionally, try using the “Direct Connect” method to join Minecraft servers, which you can find in the Multiplayer menu. Another way to prevent this error is to avoid keeping the game open for long periods without playing.

What is the ‘Invalid Session’ Error in Minecraft?

The “Invalid Session” error in Minecraft occurs due to issues with Mojang’s authentication system for your account. There doesn’t seem to be a single direct cause, as the problem happens sporadically for players.

And that’s it! We hope you’ve learned something new about fixing the “Invalid Session” error when joining a server. If you have any questions, feel free to join the HolyHosting Discord 🚀.
