Resetting your Chromebox
There may be times when you want to reset your Chromebox (for
example, removing your personal information and settings).
Completely resetting your Chromebox is known as "Powerwashing",
which is basically factory resetting your computer. After
powerwashing, your Chromebox will look like it did out of the box
(including all apps that came pre-installed). To powerwash your
Chromebox, do the following:
1. Select the
Status
area of the shelf in the lower-right corner of the
screen.
2. Select
Settings
icon.
3. Select
Advanced
.
Important
Do not modify your Chromebox’s hardware yourself. Doing so will
cause the update function to no longer work. Please get in touch with
your dealer or an authorized service center. Visit www.acer.com to find
an authorized service site.
Important
Powerwashing your Chromebox will remove all local settings, data, and
programs from your hard drive. Backup any data on your hard drive that
is not saved online by moving it to Google Drive and waiting for it to
sync.
