However, the user can choose whether or not to keep the configuration file when uninstalling. So, if one wants just to delete the cache file(s), he/she can uninstall MinimServer with the option to keep the configuration file and then reinstall MinimServer again.

I'm not sure how this is handled on other platforms. Maybe this approach could also be an option for these.

I think this approach is ideal, but it's difficult to implement it on some platforms such as QNAP (no ability to interact with the uninstaller) and Mac (no uninstaller).

Isn't it a bit radical, to need to uninstall software [just] to clear some settings?
I only know MinimServer on QNap, so this might be a non-starter because it wouldn't be cross-platform, but here goes! On QNap, I can <Enable> or <Disable> MinimServer; these functions are used vvv rarely, so perhaps it wouldn't be wildly unreasonable for <Enable> to clear existing cached data - I'm assuming (yes yes I know the phrase) that clicking on <Enable> initiates a different execution path from the path entered on restarting the NAS.
