How to delete qTox profile?

Question

I have installed qTox using this guide, however I have forgotten my password and wish to create a new profile, but also delete the old one. And this is where I have my problem, I have tried purging it and then installing it again, however that does not seem to delete the profile? So how do I delete it? I am running Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 with GNOME 3.18 and the latest version of qTox.

Simply remove your profile files :

rm ~/.config/tox/<tox_username>.tox
rm ~/.config/tox/qtox.ini
