How to Upload a World to Your Minecraft Server

Minecraft·March 22, 2026·9 min read

Hello! In this guide, we will show you how to upload a world you already have saved on your computer to your Minecraft server. Let's get started! Where do I find my Minecraft worlds? To upload a world you have been using in Singleplayer to your Minecraft server, do the following: - Press the "Windows" key and type %appdata% - Enter the .Minecraft folder - Open the "Saves" folder. There, all the worlds you have saved in Singleplayer will appear.

We are going to compress this folder.

How do I upload it to my server? To upload the world to your server, first: - Go to the panel. - Navigate to the "Files" section - Find the "World" folder and delete it. - Now upload the compressed file of your world.

rar

Once we upload the file to the server, we need to extract it. To do this, right-click on the file and then "Unarchive" Now we have two options: either rename the world folder and name it "World"

Or open the file server.properties, find the line "Level-name" and replace the value with the name of your world.

server.properties

Once we have done either of the two options, we start the server. Renaming the world or changing the value of level-name is important because otherwise, when starting the server, a new world will be generated. 🎉 Conclusion We hope this guide has been helpful and remember, do not hesitate to ask on HolyHosting Discord or contact our support team.
