Missing .imch file in clean install on Windows
I guess it might be because it still reads the pgdata from the previous reset, but I don't understand where that is located, it should prbably also be deleted

Missing .imch file in clean install on Windows
Ok I am nearly there... But I now try to run docker compose again but it does not seem to create anything new, it just tries to start the server again and naturally now it complains about missing file again (because of course, I deleted them wanting a fresh reinstall). Is there any other changes I need to do to make it a fresh reset of immich?

No it was a clean install as I said initially, I had done absolutely nothing to any files other than running immich-go to populate my library

Missing .imch file in clean install on Windows
Ok quick stupid follow up question. The Library folder from yesterday's attempt at getting immish up and running is still pretty large, indicating it still contains the gigabites of images I imported from google photos. But my new immich install don't show any of those even though my .env still points to the same Library directory. Should I delete the library directory, set it up again and then run immich-go again to do the import?
