How to Reset or Restart Your Minecraft Bedrock Server

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:
  1. Stop the server from the panel
  2. Go to the File Manager
  3. Delete the worlds folder (this contains your saved world data)
  4. 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. ✅
