Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

💡 FAQ:

Q: Does this support all operating systems?
A: Moving an item to the recycle bin/trash varies a lot between operating systems, so this is indeed not guaranteed to work on all systems. This mod has been tested to work on Windows and Mac. Other Gnome based Unix systems should work, too (1.18+ only). If your Linux system is not supported, running apt-get install libgnome2-0 in terminal for installing the necessary components might just do the trick. If your system is not supported, worlds will be deleted using the vanilla method, meaning they're gone forever.

Q: How can I tell whether my operating system is supported?
A: The delete world screen will tell you! If it gives you the option to move a world to the recycle bin/trash everything is supported. If you only see the vanilla delete world screen you're out of luck unfortunately.
