Uploading Your World

In the method below you will be asked to compress/archive your world folder in the .zip format before uploading it to your server. Although you may still upload the folder directly, we recommend archiving it first as it requires a shorter time to upload.

2. Navigate to your Minecraft Client world folder.
   

PC (Windows 10 Edition):

1. There will be a folder (or multiple folders, one for each world if you have Windows 10 Edition or Pocket Edition) with a random name like “BQUAAIFxEAA=”, find the world file you want to put on your dedicated server by checking levelname.txt.

10. Remove the = symbol from the world folder name by clicking the “Rename” button from the 3 dots.
11. Open the server.properties file on your server. Find the level-name= line and enter the name of the folder you uploaded in step 8, (spaces are allowed) so that it looks something like level-name=My Server Level. This must match the folder name.
