# ️ How to Upload Your Custom World ️

To upload your custom world, you need to follow the next steps:

1. Generate a world in single-player Valheim, then go to `C:UsersusernameAppDataLocalLowIronGateValheimworlds` to find it on your machine.

2. Find the following two files: `worldname.db` and `worldname.fwl`.


—

3. Connect via WinSCP to your server to upload the two files under the `/Saves/worlds_local` folder.
