If the standard fix didn't work that would be important info to include with you initial post ... however since it's worked for everyone else likely you did something incorrectly. So post exactly what you did, step by step.
i spawned in abyss
left game
disabled benchwarp
went back on
got off and sat back on the bench i spawned at (Beast's Den since i helped someone out of there)
turned benchwarp back on
and was straight back in abyss
that's exactly what i did
that should be the correct steps, although I've never had to udo it. You could also try benchwarp fix or save editing to switch your bench

Save Files
The save files for Hollow Knight are shared between all installs of the game, and are easily interacted with.
🔹 What do the save files looks like?
- Hollow Knight save files are in the form of
user#.dat, where#is the save slot for the file.. - You can take a file named
user3.datand rename it touser1.datto set it to your first save slot. - You can keep a copy of all of your save files by copy and pasting them into a different folder on your computer.
🔹 Reverting Backup files
- You have save file backups that are called
user#.dat.bak#, where the first#is the save slot, and the second#is the backup number. Typically speaking, you will have your last three backups. - You can set a backup to be the real file by deleting the main file, and then removing the
.bak#part of the backup file.
🔹 Modded save files
- If you are using mods, a modded save may also have a
user#.modded.json(and similarly named backup). Both this file and theuser#.datare part of the save.
🔹 Where are the files?
- On windows, the default path for Save Files is
%appdata%\..\LocalLow\Team Cherry\Hollow Knight\ - For other operating systems, type
?savesinto chat.
🔹 I need a specific type of save file
- Various save files can be found in the "Saves" section of this page:
https://www.speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
🔹 Editing save files
You can edit various values of save files. Below are different available methods.
- Website: https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
- QoL mod: If you open a save file with QoL installed, you'll have an extra save file called
user#.json, which can be edited using Notepad or a similar text editor. - MoreSaves mod: With the MoreSaves mod installed, you can edit save files from the Main Menu.
- DebugMod: While not an intended purpose, you can edit some parts of your save file using Debug, such as Nail Damage, and those changes will remain even after uninstalling the mod.
More specifically, if the pinned steps didn't work what you can try is to:
- go to your saves folder, that you can find with the method explained in the bot's message or, if you're using scarab+, by clicking "open saves folder"
- open
user#.modded.jsonwith # = number of the slot of the save - change
atDeploiedBenchfromtruetofalse
