I had a Minecraft EE world which suddenly disappeared one morning. I could find the other topic page about how to recover an accidental deleted world, but it didn't say how to extract the data from the .dat file. Please help!

  Hi, here are directions for the PC:

  1. copy the entire folder for this world to your desktop, or another convenient location
  2. open the folder in this new location, select all of the files in the directory, right click and then select "Send to Compressed (zipped) folder"
  3. A new file with extension ".zip" will show up in this folder.  Move this .zip file to the desktop, or another convenient location
  4. Rename the .zip file to "[WORLDNAME].mcworld" - WORLDNAME is a name you choose that is recognizeable to you
  5. Double click on this file, and Minecraft: Education Edition will launch
