      Workaround

      Try replacing level.dat by level.dat_old in your world folder.

      The bug

      Worlds can be deleted by using the following steps. However, they remain in the ''saves'' folder.

      How to reproduce

      1. Create a world with some specific name (to make sure that you won't think that is other world)
      2. Load it
      3. Shut down the computer by pushing the button that you switch on your computer (pull at least 5 seconds)
      4. Switch the computer on again
      5. Open Minecraft
      6. Open the world folder
        → Notice that the world is gone
      7. Go to the ''saves'' folder
        → Notice that the save is still there
