WARNING

We recommend that any world that is to be opened by Amulet is backed up to avoid any loss of data.

When starting Amulet, you should be presented with a screen similar to the following:

After clicking the Open World button, you will be presented with the following pop-up dialog:

The worlds on the right side of the dialog will be worlds that have previously been opened by Amulet, and clicking the Open other world button will show a directory choosing dialog. Using this dialog, select the world directory that you wish to open and then select Select folder.

Once the world has been successfully loaded by Amulet, the following will be displayed:

From this screen, a summary of information about the world is displayed, such as the world name, the last version and platform of Minecraft the world was opened in, and the ending of the file path where the world is located.

On the left side there are 3 tabs, with the current one being the About tab, where various sub-programs of Amulet can be accessed and used:

• About - Summary of the opened world's information
