Effect of parameter | -reset-database // -reset-deltas

Also keep in mind that -reset-database will not output anything, whether it works correctly or not, which is perhaps not ideal. To verify that the reset was successful, look in the config folder and you should find that the index-v...db folder is gone.

It is also strange for me, I can rename, move, delete the directory /var/packages/syncthing/target/var/index-v0.14.0.db/. Syncthing still work as if it were nothing after starting, but the directory will not be recreated and to create the database again. Maybe I waited too short, because it was not plausibel for me.

I would like clarification on how to reset the database manually. Should I just delete the contents of the /var/packages/syncthing/target/var/index-v0.14.0.db/ directory?
