Upgrade StorageHow to start a new virgin library?
I haven't used Zotero in a while, but still have > 500 MB of stuff in my Zotero folder, which I'd like to archive (just copy-and-paste to an external USB-drive).
To then start a new empty library, can I just delete the (archived / backup-ed) Zotero folder? Or should I better open Zotero (in Firefox) and manually delete "everything" from within Zotero? What's considered the best way of getting back to nil?

If you have used sync, your online library would sync back to Zotero after you delete your Zotero folder (from Zotero's point of view it'd look as if you were on a new computer), so in that case you'd probably want to delete things within Zotero.
