PC Save games and generated worlds

I have had an issue with a save game that I backed up, and a generated world associated with that save, that I also backed up, or so I thought. After I tried to restore the save, and world, the save was fine, but I could not find the world. The "Generated World" folder was there, but it was empty.

 So I'm now left with a save, and no world, making it useless. I have checked Appsdata folder, but there is no world in there for the save.

There are so many parameters for a world, that trying to remember them, to generate it again is near impossible!

Is there not some way that the world data can be stored in the save so it can be regenerated from it?

Although you solved it, just to answer your final question...

That wouldn't be a good option.  A world is quite large and people often have multiple save games for a single world.  If you are saving the entire map with each save, your save games will become huge and you'll waste a significant amount of space.
