reexecute

Perform once more

To reexecute is to execute again—to carry out, perform, or run something a second time.

The word appears most often in computing, where reexecuting code means running a program or command again: The script failed, so I had to reexecute it after fixing the bug.

In legal contexts, to reexecute a document is to sign or formalize it anew.

Also spelled re-execute.
