Start over
Reset les Archives to a clean state without touching a single photograph.
Updated Jul 26, 20262 min readApplies to 1.0.0
During a beta this is a normal thing to do, not an admission of anything. If a catalog is in a state nobody can explain, a clean start is faster than us debugging it over email.
Quit les Archives
Fully. Not just the window.
Move the app's folder to the trash
~/Library/Application Support/TBTCatalog
In Finder, use Go, then Go to Folder, and paste that path. If you also want
to clear the older location, do the same with
~/.tbt-catalog.
Open the app and sign in again
Your workspace, your jobs, and everything already cataloged are still on the server. What you cleared was the local copy, so the app rebuilds it.
Starting over on the server too
That one we do for you. Ask in the room or email hi@lesarchives.app and say which workspace. We will confirm before anything is deleted, and we do not do it from a message that reads like it might have been sent in frustration.

Still stuck
Tell us what happened and we will usually answer the same day. If it is more of a question than a bug, ask the room. Every tester reads it, and you are already signed in.
