I have been unable to link Minecraft for Windows 10 to [https://minecraft.makecode.com/beta](https://minecraft.makecode.com/beta). I tried adding a new service to Code Connection, and although, it opens the browser, it does not link to Minecraft.

Is there a way to establish a connection between Minecraft for Windows 10 and the MakeCode for Minecraft Beta?

I have been creating block programs in the Beta, sharing, then running in the current MakeCode editor – which is not fun.

Go to extensions and in the search bar type _/@beta/?ipc=1_ and that should load the beta editor in the codeconnection. If this doesn’t work let me know.

Thanks. I have used this on Education Edition with success on both Windows and iPad versions.  
I have not yet been able to test on MakeCode for Minecraft on Windows 10 because the server refuses to connect. I 'll try tomorrow.  
Again thanks so much. I am already writing functions with return values. Wow!
