+If you ever want to recreate your development environment again from
+scratch (e.g., to test a change you've made to the provisioning
+process, or because you think something is broken), you can do so using the following steps:
+
+1. To find the distribution name to unregister(delete), open Command Prompt or PowerShell and use the following command:
+
+```console
+$ wsl --list --verbose
+```
+
+If you are unsure about which distribution to unregister, you can log into the WSL distributions to ensure you are deleting the one containing Zulip using the command:
+
+```console
+wsl -d <Distribution Name>
+```
+
+2. To uninstall your WSL distribution, enter the command:
+
+```console
+$ wsl --unregister <Distribution Name>
+```
+
+For more information, checkout the [official documentation for WSL commands](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/basic-commands#unregister-or-uninstall-a-linux-distribution)
+
+3. **Next, follow the setup instructions**, starting from [[Step 1: Install prerequisites]](/development/setup-recommended.md#step-1-install-prerequisites)
+
+Additionally, if you would only like to rebuild the dev database, you can use:
+
+```console
+$ ./tools/rebuild-dev-database
+```
+
+To rebuild the database used in automated testing:
+
+```
+$ ./tools/rebuild-test-database
+```
