Minecraft world randomly disappeared

RanaYui · Apr 29, 2022

I loading into my Minecraft account to find my main world to be gone. None of the other worlds have disappeared

I've tried:

Restarting my console

Reinstalling Minecraft

Clearing local saved games

Syncing old worlds(nothing pops up)

I don't know what else to do at this point. I've been working on this for more than a year at this point and would like my world back.

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

I apologize for the trouble. Seems like you have performed all the necessary steps. For cases like this what we initially need to do is to quit the game and perform power cycle in that way once you launch the game your in-game data will just re-sync.

Kindly quit the game and follow the steps below before you re-launch the game.

POWERCYCLE CONSOLE

1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off.

2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller.

In this case, it would be best to reach out to Mojang so they can check your in-game account/data to guide you with advanced troubleshooting steps.

Hi Jennifer Dunne,

Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. We appreciate for sharing your concern with us and we hope that you are doing well today.

We understand that you are trying to recover the games that is no longer found on your PC. You mentioned that did not delete the game manually, but instead you just take a 30 minutes break from the game and when you came back you cannot find it.

Let us try to do the steps on this link on recovering your deleted Minecraft games with this link: Managing Data and Game Storage in Minecraft – Home. Just to set expectation that an item deleted using the uninstall method on PC cannot be recover even on the recycled bin folder. You may also try to wait after 24 hours and see it again your file.

If you have other clarifications about this matter, you can get back to us by replying to this post.
