How to Enable Cheats Permanently After World Creation

If you encounter this issue, here is a step by step guide on how to enable Cheats/Admincommands permanently after you have already created a Minecraft world.

⚠️ Before you begin, you should save and backup your world in case something goes wrong. (I will not take any responsibility for any corrupt worlds. Do this at your own risk!) But don't worry this works without any problems. If you don't want to change this permanently check out this guide.

1. You need NBTExplorer

> NBTExplorer is an open-source NBT editor for all common sources of NBT data. It's mainly intended for editing Minecraft game data.

2. Open NBTExplorer and open your Minecraft world, where you want to enable Cheats/Admincommands.

3. Navigate to:

  • level.dat
  • Data
  • allowCommands

4. Click on "Edit Tag Value"
