# Uploading Worlds

If you already have a world from your Singleplayer instance or another hosting provider, you can freely move your worlds to FPS.ms. Make sure to have the same Minecraft version, plugins and/or mods while uploading a world as your other provider or your home PC as it may cause compatibility issues or corrupt worlds.

Before using this guide, make sure to stop your server and delete the current world folders.

## Using the server panel
1. Go to your [server panel](https://panel.fps.ms)
2. Go to the Files tab and click on the **Upload** button.
3. Select your `.zip` file that contains the world folder.
4. Press **OK** and the upload should start.
5. Once the upload is complete, find the uploaded file and press the 3 dots beside it.
6. Click on **Unarchive** and it should have extracted your world file. Once it is complete you are good to go!

!!! info "For worlds bigger than 100 MB use [SFTP](https://fps.ms/docs/getting-started/connecting-to-sftp.md)."

## Using SFTP
1. Connect to your server using [SFTP](https://fps.ms/docs/getting-started/connecting-to-sftp.md).
3. Drag and drop the zip file containing the world folder and the upload should start.
4. Once the upload is done go back to the [server panel](https://panel.fps.ms/).
5. Find the uploaded file and press the 3 dots beside it.
6. Click on **Unarchive** and it should have extracted your world file. Once it is complete you are good to go!
