How to Reinstall Your QuantVPS

If you need to start fresh, whether switching from Linux to Windows, upgrading your OS version, or resolving issues, you can reinstall your VPS directly from the control panel.

⚠️ Warning: Reinstalling your VPS will erase everything on it, including all files, programs, and settings. After the reinstall, you’ll receive a new administrator (Windows) or root (Linux) password in your QuantVPS dashboard. This action is permanent and cannot be undone.

Available Operating Systems

When reinstalling your VPS, you can choose from:

  • Windows Server 2019

  • Windows Server 2022

  • Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

  • Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Step-by-Step Reinstall Guide

1. Log in to the VPS Dashboard

Go to https://www.quantvps.com/login and sign in with your account credentials.

2. Navigate to Your VPS

From the dashboard, click on the VPS/server you want to reinstall.

3. Open the Control Panel

Once inside your server's page, select the Control Panel option.

4. Scroll to the Reinstall Section

  1. Scroll below the Credentials section under Server Manager.

  2. Locate the Reinstall Operating System Wizard (as shown in the screenshot).

5. Select a New Operating System

Use the dropdown menu to choose your preferred OS: Windows Server (2019 or 2022) or Ubuntu (22.04 LTS or 24.04 LTS).

6. Confirm the Reinstall

  • Click Reinstall.

  • A warning will remind you this action is not reversible.

  • Confirm to proceed.

7. Wait for the Reinstall Process to Complete

  • The reinstall process usually takes 5–15 minutes. Allow sufficient time for it to complete entirely.

  • During this period, avoid interrupting or trying to access the VPS.

  • Once finished, your VPS will be reset to the selected OS.

8. Retrieve Your New Credentials

  • After the reinstall, your new login credentials can be found directly in your QuantVPS dashboard under the Credentials section.

  • Disregard any previously saved credentials as they will no longer be valid.

  • Use the new password to log in to your freshly reinstalled VPS.

After the Reinstall

Once your VPS is back online with the new operating system, you may want to:

  • Update the OS to the latest patches and security updates

  • Reinstall any applications or trading platforms you use

  • Restore your backed-up files and configurations

  • Re-enable any firewall or remote access settings you previously had configured
