There are situations where you may want to download your world to your computer. This could be for backing it up or for playing it in single-player mode instead of on a server. In this article, we will explain how to download your world from your Aternos server.
How to:
You can download your world from the "Worlds" page: https://aternos.org/worlds/. Just select a world and click "Download." A zip archive containing your world will be automatically downloaded from the server.
Make sure to use your regular browser for the download and don't use any third-party tools or download managers.
