\n

When you first activate your VPS order <\/b><\/a>right after purchase, <\/b>you get the option to choose the VPS operating system (OS). If you want to change the OS template for an already active order, you can do so in a few clicks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Changing or reinstalling the operating system on your VPS will permanently delete all your current data. Make sure to download a backup via FTP beforehand if you wish to keep your information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Step 1.\u00a0 Access your Client Area<\/h3>\n

You can log into your account with the link: https:\/\/greencloudvps.com\/billing\/login<\/a><\/p>\n

Then you are in the client area.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Step 2. Click on Services -> My services<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then choose the service you want to reinstall to see details, as the VPS service I want to reinstall here is “GreenCloud.1695262916”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Step 3. Go to the VPS management page\u00a0 to reinstall VPS<\/h4>\n

Click Reinstall Server<\/b>\u00a0<\/b>and choose the desired OS then click on\u00a0Reinstall<\/b>:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then please wait about 5-10 minutes for the reinstallation process to complete and try again (username\/password information to access VPS after installation is complete will be the same as your original information)<\/p>\n

Good Luck!<\/p>\n
