How to Reinstall Your Minecraft Server
Overview
There may be times when you need to reinstall your Minecraft server to fix issues or start fresh. This guide will walk you through the process.
Warning: Reinstalling your server will permanently delete all existing data on the server, including worlds, plugins, configurations, and player data.
Before proceeding with a reinstall, we strongly recommend:
- Create your own backup of important data alongside our backups
- Verify that your backups are up to date
- Download any custom configurations or worlds you wish to preserve
Reinstallation Process

- Click the "Reinstall Server" button
- A confirmation pop-up will appear asking you to confirm the reinstallation
- Confirm that you understand all data will be wiped
- Click "Confirm" to proceed with the reinstallation
After Reinstallation
Once the reinstallation is complete:
- Your server will be restored to default settings
- You will need to reconfigure any custom settings
- You will need to reinstall any plugins or mods
- You will need to restore your world from a backup if desired
If you encounter any issues during or after the reinstallation process, please contact our Technical Support department for assistance.
