How to Wipe & Reinstall Your Aloft Server

How to reset your Aloft server world or do a full reinstall from scratch.

Start a New World (Keep Server)

The easiest way to start fresh without reinstalling:

  1. Stop your server
  2. In the XGamingServer Panel, click Startup
  3. Change the World Save Name to a new name that doesn't exist yet
  4. Start the server — a brand new world generates

The old world is preserved on disk and you can switch back by reverting the name.

Full Server Reinstall

Use this as a last resort if something is broken:

  1. Stop the server
  2. Click Files in the sidebar
  3. Delete all folders and files
  4. On the Dashboard, click Reinstall Server
  5. Wait for installation to complete

⚠️ Warning: A full reinstall erases everything — world data, settings, all files. Back up anything you want to keep via Files first.

💡 Tip: If you're having issues, try changing the world name first before doing a full reinstall. Many problems are world-specific.
