# Fresh Installation of NFT Butler

This is a short guide on how to do a full reset of NFT Butler - recommended if butler feels slower than before, or if odd behavior appears after running Butler for several months on a VPS.

**Mac:** Steps to do a fresh installation on Mac: 

1. Close Butler, and move the App to the Trash bin 
2. In your Keychain Access there should be Keys stored called NFTButler --> Delete them
3. Delete this folder on your Mac: \~/Library/Application Support/NFTButler
4. Download it from the [homepage ](https://www.nftbutler.io/)and do a fresh install 

**Windows:** Steps to do a fresh installation on Windows: 

1. Close Butler
2. Delete the following folders

```
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\NFTButler
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\NFTButler
```

3. download the latest Butler version <https://nftbutler.io/>&#x20;
4. Install and start Butler&#x20;

**Impact of the Cleanup:**

* Tasks will NOT be lost and get pulled from the backend again
* Task progress and logs will be lost and all tasks will start from scratch
* You'll have to add your wallets again and set your settings
* All CTOs will be unscheduled. Those which should run need to be played again

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nftbutler.io/nft-butler/more-resources/faq/fresh-installation-of-nft-butler.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
