Lost World on Minecraft Windows 10 After Computer Crash

purpl3monk3y · Jul 26, 2019

I was AFK in my single player minecraft world when my computer crashed. When I cam back, the computer restored itself and I open Minecraft to find that my survival world was completely gone. The weirdest part is I still had my other world (I only have two
worlds). The other world was completely fine. I tried going through the files to see if i could restore the saves to a previous version but it said there were no previous versions to restore to. When I open minecraft to see my worlds, it doesn't even say corrupted
or anything, it's just gone. When I opened my saves folder however, there were two saves but they weren't named accordingly to what my world was called therefore I couldn't figure out which one was which.

Hi there sorry to hear this you could try to import both worlds again from your worlds folder, if you are unsure how to import a world please visit: https://minecrafteducation.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001427948-Importing-and-Exporting-Your-Worlds.
If this doesn't work unfortunately you will have to start again, as Minecraft autosaves regularly there is a high chance that your computer crashed when it was saving.

ok found the world save files copied them. Uninstalled and re-installed Minecraft for windows 10. After installing and updating created a new world, after 10 minutes of playing the game crashed while digging dirt. So this is the 3rd instance of the game
crashing while mining/digging... I would say in total in the last 3 days my game has crashed probably close to 300 times.

I think this solution only works for Java Edition, as W10 Edition isn't stored in .minecraft. I may be wrong though.
