By default worlds on the Galaxy map are stored here:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT
If you're not seeing AppData enable Hidden Items in File Explorer → View

But if I understand what you are trying to do, moving worlds between save slots is not as straightforward as simply renaming them.

First make a backup of your LEGOWorlds directory, in case something goes wrong.

Then you need to identify the world you want to move.
There are a couple ways of doing that but probably the quickest without using additional programs is going to that world and painting something, then go to the map screen and click Save & Continue. Now search in SavedGames\CONTENT for *.CNK sorted by date modified. The file path of the newest result is the world you just painted in.

Close the game.

Make a copy of that world directory. It will then be named something like 'S1-2108219492 - Copy' rename it to the slot number you want it to be associated with, for example 'S2-2108219492' then open the folder and there will be a file named 'S1-2108219492.CONTAINERINFO' rename it to share the new name of the directory, for example 'S2-2108219492.CONTAINERINFO'.

Now you can launch the game to see if the world transferred and works properly.


In the past you also had to let the game create a new Galaxy map cache by removing the old but I don't think that's necessary anymore in the current version, in case the world doesn't appear on the new save slot Galaxy map you can close the game and go to:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT\S2-SYSGLOBAL
(go to the relevant Save Slot you're modifying)

There will be a file called 'GALAXY.CACHE' delete and the game will generate a new one. And check again.

If it still doesn't work you probably did something wrong and it's time to revert to the backup.

You quoted before I edited my post, AUTOSAVE.GAMESAVE also appears in the Global slot saves so the latest modified search result won't necessarily lead to the file path of the world just saved.

Please remove or update the quote to avoid confusion.

That's a problem but if this is left unanswered it will inevitably end with somebody declaring that it's impossible and that annoys me.

That's easy.

All your stored Brick Builds for Save Slot 1 are located at:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT\S1-SYSGLOBAL\MODS\MODELS

Save Slot2:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT\S2-SYSGLOBAL\MODS\MODELS

Save Slot3:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT\S3-SYSGLOBAL\MODS\MODELS

Save Slot4:
C:\Users\<User-Name>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\SavedGames\CONTENT\S4-SYSGLOBAL\MODS\MODELS

You can simply copy the folder contents to the new destination and it will be available next time you enter a world.
