# How To Reset Your Foundry Server (/docs/foundry/reset-server)



import { Step, Steps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/steps';

If your Foundry server is having issues or you want a fresh start, you can reset it by reinstalling.

> ⚠️ **Warning:** Reinstalling your server deletes **all** files and data including world saves and configuration. This cannot be undone. Create a backup first if you want to keep any files.
