Reinstalling/reloading your server's operating system will result in all data being deleted off of your server. The data will NOT be able to be recovered, so you will want to make sure you have any data you need backed up before proceeding with the Operating System reinstall/reload.


[1] Log into your VPS Control Panel

Your VPS Control Panel log in details were provided in the email you received once your VPS was turned up. If you need to reset your VPS Control Panel password, please see our article:

How do I reset my VPS Control Panel password?

[2] Once you're logged into your VPS Control Panel, click Manage vpscp.jpg to the right of the server you're wanting to reinstall/reload the operating system of.

[3] Click on the Vpscp general.jpg tab under the 'Controls' section.

[4] Click the Reinstall vpscp.jpg button.

[5] Select the operating system you're wanting to install.

[6] Click the Reinstall vpscp.jpg button at the bottom.

[7] Click the Vps yes.jpg button.
