How to completely remove all DVR data and start over?

Running Windows server 1.7.3.3937 with an HDHomeRun EXTEND. I’ve been having escalating problems for months now with recording behavior not aligning with my settings. Many recordings on my recording schedule, for example say “recorded successfully”…but then are nowhere to be found in my library. I’ve deleted individual show recording settings, and re-building them, but the problem persists. I’ve tried deleting the entire DVR library/settings and starting over…but it seems like my settings/recording-schedules are carried over and applied automatically once I try to rebuild the DVR.

I can’t help but think there are some conflicts in the underlying databases. How do I go about nuking just the DVR portion of my server so that I can start over from scratch?

Don’t know if you can nuke just the DVR portion but the databases are typically under your user account the appdata and I believe the Local folder and look for Plex Media Server. You could probably move that folder to a different location and uninstall/install Plex Media Server and redo your server setup.
