This has been asked and answered several times, oddly I cannot find the particular questions/answers that convey this.
In terminal type
tracker reset
some help options now display
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ tracker reset
Usage:
tracker reset [OPTION...]
Help Options:
-h, --help Show help options
Application Options:
-r, --hard Kill all Tracker processes and remove all databases
-e, --soft Same as --hard but the backup & journal are restored after restart
-y, --yes Skip interactive verification for reset.
-c, --config Remove all configuration files so they are re-generated on next start
-f, --file=FILE Erase indexed information about a file, works recursively for directories
In your case, you may want to use
tracker reset -r
