# Extract the compressed file.
# If you see a file named , then you're good to go! Extract the zip/rar to a folder ()

# The new save is usually all the way at the bottom, but that's not always the case. You might need to do some hunting.
# Once you found it, load it up and have fun! You may have to back up the world if it was saved in a different version of Minecraft.

# Download the world file (usually in or ) format
## If it is bedrock map, rename to .mcworld, then open in Minecraft
