How to Wipe & Reinstall Your Arma Reforger Server
Reset your Arma Reforger server config or perform a full reinstall to start from scratch.
Reset just config.json to defaults without removing the server installation.
Create a backup
In the XGamingServer Panel, go to Backups and save your current state.
Export your current config
Open the Arma Reforger Config editor and click the export button to save your config externally — this lets you re-import settings later.
Stop the server
Stop from Console.
Delete config.json
In Files, find config.json in the server root and delete it.
Start the server
Start from Console. Arma Reforger generates a fresh default config.json on first boot.
Removes everything — server files, config, save data, mods.
Export your config
If you want to keep your settings, open Arma Reforger Config and export the config to a file first.
Create a backup
Go to Backups and save everything.
Stop the server
Stop from Console.
Delete all files
Click Files in the sidebar, select all files and folders, and delete them.
Reinstall
On the Dashboard, click Reinstall Server. Fresh server files are downloaded from Steam.
Reconfigure
Open Arma Reforger Config and set up your server name, scenario, max players, password, and mods. Or import your previously exported config. Start the server.
Warning: Full reinstall erases everything including your
config.json, save data, and downloaded mods. Always export your config first using the Arma Reforger Config editor.
