How To Reset Your Garry's Mod Server

Learn how to reset or reinstall your Garry's Mod dedicated server.

If your Garry's Mod 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 addons, maps, and configuration. This cannot be undone. Create a backup first if you want to keep any files.

Stop Your Server

Log in to the XGamingServer Panel and Stop your Garry's Mod server.

Delete All Server Files

In the sidebar, click Files and delete all folders and files so the file manager is completely empty.

Reinstall the Server

On the Dashboard, find the Reinstall Server option and click it. Wait for the installation to complete.

Reconfigure Your Server

Once the reinstall finishes, go to Startup to set your GSLT, server name, game mode, and other settings before starting the server.

If you continue to have issues after reinstalling, join our Discord and we will help you out.
