I have found that using the internal delete option in TWX setup to delete databases works fine as long as i exit TWX AFTER i delete the database and re-enter BEFORE i create a new database.
Also there may be a number of files created in the TWX root folder by various scripts that you run. You need to delete these files manually.
I have created a batch file that i use to delete the extra files from the TWX root but it requires that you use a naming convention when creating these files. Most of them are generally created using the database name as part of the filename. Example: GAMENAME_sectorlist.txt where GAMENAME is the name of the database for the game you are playing. So if I were playing in game A on UTW i would name the database UTWA and whenever i need to give a script a filename i would precede it with UTWA_ ... so the filename might end up as UTWA_SECTORLIST.txt. The batch file i created asks for the database name and after showing a list of the files it proposes to delete and waiting for confirmation it will delete all files that contain UTWA_ in the name.
I will attach the batch file to this post. Place it in your TWX root and make a shortcut to it on your desktop.
NOTE that this batch file does NOT delete the actual databases. I usually do that from within TWX's setup before i run this batch file.
