Whether you want to restart your Bedrock server to apply changes or completely reset it with a fresh world, this guide will show you how to do both safely and correctly. ✔️
⏰ Restarting the Server (Soft Reset)
A restart simply shuts down the server and boots it back up. This is useful after:
- ✔️ Changing configuration files
- ✔️ Uploading new addons or packs
- ✔️ Experiencing lag or performance drops
➡️ To restart:
- ➡️ Log into your game panel
- ➡️ Select your server and click the Restart button
This won’t delete any files or change your world. It’s safe to use any time. ✅
⚠️ Resetting the Server (Full World Reset)
Resetting your server will delete your current world and generate a new one. Do this if you want to start over completely.
➡️ Steps to reset your Bedrock server:
- Stop the server from the panel
- Go to the File Manager
- Delete the
worldsfolder (this contains your saved world data) - Start the server again — a new world will be generated automatically
✔️ You can also upload your own world if desired before starting the server.
✅ Backup Before Resetting
Before deleting anything, we recommend creating a backup just in case:
- ➡️ Use the Backup button in your panel (if available)
- ✔️ Download the world folder to your computer for safekeeping
Accidentally deleted the wrong world? A backup can save you from starting over. ✅
