With the passing of time, with so many constructions, mods, or even plugins, everything starts to get heavy. Or when you are wanting to play a different modpack in our list but still can not because the server does not start with several illegible, unreadable errors.
||| If you change between our server types you need to do a clean installation which WILL DELETE ALL YOUR SERVER FILES (INCLUDING BACKUPS). Please backup first what you need to your PC using Filezilla.

4. Click on `Apply`, then go back to your main Multicraft page and start your server.
|| NOTE: The setup will start at the first server start, so be sure to actually start your server after setting the Setup.
Now you know how to do a clean installation.
