Exporting Instance

A feature in the control panel allows you to export an instance to download to your computer, in which you can restore them later on.

  • Visit the Control Panel > Minecraft sub-menus.
  • Click Export Instance and wait for it to complete, this could take a few minutes, or longer.
  • You will get a pop up in the panel with a URL to download your instance file.
    - If for some reason this popup does not show, it will be in your Virtual Server > API Logs in the export complete information.

The .instance file is a ZIP, it can be opened in any ZIP management program such as 7zip, WinRAR, WinZIP etc.
It contains a complete copy of your Minecraft installation, the world, configs, mods.

Instances can be imported to your control panel later on using the Control Panel > Minecraft > Import Instance menu if you decide to reimplement that installation of Minecraft.
