How to Enter the Command
1. Open the Chat Window
The easiest way to run a command in Minecraft is within the chat window. The game control to open the chat window depends on the version of Minecraft:
- For Java Edition (PC/Mac), press the T key to open the chat window.
- For Pocket Edition (PE), tap on the chat button
at the top of the screen. - For Xbox One, press the D-Pad (right)
on the controller. - For Nintendo Switch, press the right arrow button
on the controller. - For Windows 10 Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.
- For Education Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.
2. Type the Command
In this example, we will set the gamerule to keep inventory after dying with the following command:
/gamerule keepInventory true
Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.
The game rule will be changed for your world. Now, let's see what happens to your inventory when you die in the game.
As you can see in the Respawn window above, your items are still in your hotbar. You did not throw them in front of you when you died this time. Now, click theRespawn button to rejoin the game.
Here you are back in the game. Your items are still in your hotbar and also in your other inventory rows. You won't have to find where you last died in the game to reacquire your items.
Congratulations, you just learned how to use the keepInventory cheat to save your inventory items when you die and respawn in Minecraft!
