I deleted one Minecraft world sometime ago. I later created a new world and saved it on a flash drive. I used the flash drive to place the new world on my new laptop. After much time, I have finally reached the Nether... only to realize that it is the exact same Nether from the first world. Evidence appears as cobblestone paths and structures that I specifically recall creating in the previous world. I have never before reached the Nether in the current world. Assuming all aspects remain true, the surrounding area ought to be clear of anything worth mining. So... is this normal?
Sometimes when you delete a world not all of the files are deleted during cleanup. If you then use the same name for a new world, it will use the same directory and the left over files can show up as chunks in your new world since MC only generates a chunk from scratch if the file for that chunk is missing.
You can delete your nether and cause it to be regenerated from scratch. Exit minecraft first, go to your save and delete the entirety of the folder DIM-1
