Minecraft world is corrupted after Xbox reset

Egge9023 · Nov 23, 2022

A few of my games kept giving me a storage error that I had no save space left, despite having plenty, and after clearing local saved games a few times and resetting, I just reset the whole Xbox and kept the games. I loaded up Minecraft, tried syncing my world, and it failed to sync and then said the world was corrupted. I saw another post similar to this that was resolved but they didn’t say how . I’ve uninstalled and cleared local saved games, reinstalled, restarted… I don’t know what else to do or if I can get it back.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Egge9023, when it comes to corrupted files on the console or PC, unfortunately in 99% of cases it will not be possible to recover the file, in the case your minecraft world.

Thanks. But my local save was not corrupted. It is that I did a Xbox factory reset. After that, I did try to re-sync my Minecraft world (500+MB) and the console said "the cloud save is corrupted".

Is it possible that I get the "corrupted" save from your cloud storage and then I can try to repair it? The Minecraft save is so precious to us. Is this possible?

So somehow overnight it fixed itself enough to allow me to resign in with my gamertag and my settings seem to re-synced. However, I tried to pop onto my Minecraft world first and it corrupted the save data of a world. I'm trying to recover it now- but as for the xbox issue, I don't know how, but it's more or less resolved after three system resets and clearing all my accounts which seems to have corrupted save data. I'm worried that it will have corrupted more than a little Minecraft world, will return with an update later.

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

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

I have now also tried deleting and redownloading Minecraft and soft factory reseting my xbox. Now the world has reappeared but shows up with ‘The world is not fully synced or has been corrupted. Try playing the world on a console where its in a good state and try migrating it again.’ I really don’t want to lose this world and wondering what i could do
