Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

We may need to perform an extended powercycle and reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

Access Application Data\.minecraft\saves. ...

1. Make a copy of the corrupted world folder & all files & folders inside, and rename it however you please. ...
2. Start Minecraft and create a new world, then save and close Minecraft. ...
3. Go back to Application Data\. ...
4. Cut the files (but not the folders) from the new saved world folder.

I'm really sorry to inform you that you unfortunately cannot yet recover deleted worlds. There is an article here you can read: https://primagames.com/tips/what-do-when-your-minecraft-world-gets-deleted

Primarily, it states: "At time of writing, the modern version of

Minecraft (Bedrock Edition 1.14.60.5, released on April 15th, 2020) doesn't have any options for recovering a world that's been deleted outright, since the game stores its files locally."

Even though 1.16 (Nether Update) just came out the other day, we still do not have a recovery feature. The only way to download deleted worlds is if the world was also hosted on a "Realm".

If you do have the world on a Realm, you can download the world file at any time by navigating through the menu as such:

Play > Realm > Edit [REALM NAME] > Download World

I hope this helps! If it makes you feel any better, I remember losing my first Minecraft world back in 2012 on Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition. Tough times and heavy days my friend, you will get through this and make an even better world, I'm sure of it!
