Shouldn't
1. Stop Serviio
2. Delete db files in <Serviio catalog>\library (What does a just installed and empty <Serviio catalog>\library file tree look like?)
3. Start Serviio
do the trick??

I'm not certain if simply restarting the service with an empty DB folder will recreate the DB, or if the install puts some necessary files in place that are used by the DB. We need Zip to answer accurately. For myself, I've always just done a reinstall, but I admit I've never tried what you suggest.
