Hi,
if you delete the work/engine files, it will wipe the persistent memory of the engine off. If you delete the work/worklist files, it will wipe the persistent representation of the worklist off.
Deleting work/engine/ is a dangerous maneuver. If you delete only work/engine, the workitems stored under work/worklist will become orphans : their workflow isntances will have been wiped away.
It's OK to delete work/engine and work/worklist together if you REALLY want to reset the whole system.
