My longterm survival world [2 years old 1250 in game days] which I've been playing on with no problems will no longer let me play after I tried making another new creative world to test mods before I added them. It says I an maxed out on storage when that isn't the case, plenty on the Ps5 [over a terabyte] and just this morning I wasn't even close to full, was able to duplicate said world just fine. Deleted everything down to uninstalling minecraft from the ps5 altogether and even that didn't help. I literally cannot play. I can't make new worlds, nothing.

I have a backup saved on the PS+ Cloud, I've tried using the free trial of Realms to see if I can even run it and I can't. No matter what type of world I try and create or re-download or try and old sync it says all my storage is Full. I cannot play my favorite game, and frankly I'm extremely depressed. Please Mojang. I just wanna be able to see my world again.
Looks like I will be attempting to fix this on my own seeing as it's getting buried under copper golem bugs. I will be transferring the save to a USB and manually tinkering with the files. Wish me luck.
PS5 doesn't allow save transfer like PS4 so I can't manually scrub the file, bought realms just to try and upload the world, keeps giving me an error anywhere between 50% to 75% uploaded.
Thank you for your report!
Could you upload a copy of the world you mentioned in your ticket?

I have tried to upload this world multiple times. The fact that you asked that means you haven't read the report. Please. If I could upload the world I wouldn't have submitted the ticket in the first place?
Hi!
Could you upload a copy of your world to a OneDrive and upload a link to it here?

This is on PS5 so unfortunately no. I've tried saving to an external hardrive but to access the files they would need to be on a PS5, otherwise on pc they are encrypted.
I have done more work and research and it seems to be failed copies of worlds taking up the space. I have no way to access these “ghost files” and and they have completely prevented me from using my console version of minecraft. I would make a new bug report but since this seems to be a 4+ year community problem, I think we need to work together to fix this. Please see this.
