# Delete player data

Deleting player data from your Minecraft server resets a player's progress, such as removing their inventory, experience, and location data.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Make sure you're certain before doing this, as it will **reset the player's in-game progress** as if they're a new player on the server.
{% endhint %}

Head over to the [Game Panel](https://game.lodestone.host) and select "File Manager" on the sidebar menu.

Click on the `world` folder to edit the player data for a specific world. If you have multiple worlds, you'll need to repeat this for each world.

Click on the `playerdata` folder.&#x20;

You can now select the player data files you wish to remove, and click "Delete" to delete them.

{% hint style="info" %}
The name of each player data file is the player's UUID. You can use a tool like [NameMC](https://namemc.com) to find their UUID from their username.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Once done, restart your server to process the changes.
