SonarQube: Is there a way to reset the technical debt analysis

We have a build step in TFS 2015 (vNext build system, on prem) that kicks of a code analysis in SonarQube (also on prem | runs a service | database in SQLExpress). Last week we've updated to SonarQube 5.3 (from 5.2) and apparently the first analysis run on 5.3 caused all open issues to be closed/marked as fixed. We had a technical debt of several days (even weeks) and more than 1000 open issues. After the first run the debt was down to < 1h and just 2 issues. After another analysis run the debt is now 1h20min and 5 issues. All the previous issues are marked as 'Fixed'.

I've opened a few or those 'fixed' issues, but the code hasn't been changed. Most of the files haven't been touched in months.

What I have done so far:

Is there a way to 'reset' the SonarQube technical analysis so that it will analyse all files and create (or re-open) issues?

Thanks!

For everyone experiencing this same issue:

Apparently the problem lies with the C# Plugin. Right before I updated the SonarQube instance from 5.2 to 5.3, I updated all the system plugins that had updates available. One of them was the C# Plugin. Version 4.3 was installed and was updated to 4.4. After "extensive" testing on a virtual machine with a clean SonarQube 5.2 installation, I found out that the SonarQube version had no influence on the technical debt analysis.
