Starting fresh - Can't access GUI

I wanted to start fresh and I read somewhere I should delete the config folder on my Unraid boot flash drive, so I did.

However, now that I try to start the Unraid server I can't resolve tower.local or the IP. Luckily I have remote management but I don't know what to do next:

I seem to have solved this issue. Here is what I did:

 

  • Reinstalled Unraid using the Unraid USB Creator on the same flash drive.
  • Then I transferred my license by going to Tools ➜ Recover Key ➜ Copying the URL to the key file ➜ Pasting the key in Tools: Install key.

I was kind of lucky since the flash drive itself was not physically damaged. It was just that I had messed up the config.

 

I would still love to see a guide on how to "start fresh". Especially if there is an option to completely start fresh but keep the array since building an array parity can take days. I kind of struggled with this, which is why I managed to mess this up.
