Migrating instances from MultiMC

In MultiMC

In order to transfer an instance, or multiple instances from MultiMC to Prism Launcher, you must begin the process by opening MultiMC on your computer.

Now that MultiMC is open, navigate to the Folders tab located on the top menu bar, to the left of the Settings tab.

Left-click on the tab and select the View Instance Folder option. This should then open your system's file explorer application with the correct directory in view.

Now that the MultiMC instance directory is open, you may select, and then copy the instances that you wish to transfer.

In Prism Launcher

To complete the transfer process, you must now open Prism Launcher.

As you did in MultiMC previously, navigate to the Folders tab located on the top menu bar, to the left of the Settings tab.

Left-click on the tab and select the View Instance Folder option. This should once again open your system's file explorer application with the correct directory in view.

Now that the Prism Launcher instance directory is open, you may paste the instance(s) that you previously copied from the MultiMC directory.

Optional: If you would like to transfer your pack icon selections, navigate up from the MultiMC instances folder to the main MultiMC folder. Do the same for Prism Launcher. Copy the icons folder from MultiMC to Prism Launcher.

Finishing up

Now, in Prism Launcher, your instances should appear as they normally would in MultiMC.

If you have transferred instances across devices or packaging formats, you may need to change the version of Java that'll be used to launch Minecraft. You can learn how to do so on this page.
