## Finding a singleplayer world from your computer

If you wish to upload a singleplayer world from your computer to a [Minecraft server](https://frac.gg), follow these steps:

### On Windows:

1. Enter `Windows Key + R` on your keyboard and enter `%AppData%`
2. Head to the `.minecraft` folder and then `/saves`
3. Locate the world you wish to upload, and archive the folder with a tool like [WinRAR](https://winrar.com) or [7Zip](https://7zip.com)

### On a Mac:

1. Navigate to `~/Library/Application Support/minecraft` folder by pasting the file path on your Mac's [Spotlight](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/search-with-spotlight-mchlp1008/mac)
2. Right click the world folder, and select "**Compress \[fileName]**"

## Uploading the world to your server

1. Stop the server
2. [Upload the world archive](../../importing-files) to the **File Manager** on the [dashboard](https://frac.gg/auth)
3. Select the three dots beside the file, and click "**Unarchive**"
4. Modify the `level-name` value in `server.properties` file to the name of the world folder
5. Start the server!

And voilà, you should now be able to use and play your custom world on your Minecraft server!
