Resetting your Chromebook

There  may  be  times  when  you  want  to  reset  your  Chromebook  (for 
example,  removing  your  personal  information  and  settings). 
Completely resetting your Chromebook is known as "Powerwashing", 
which  is  basically  factory  resetting  your  computer.  After 
powerwashing,  your  Chromebook  will  look  like  it  did  out  of  the  box 
(including  all  apps  that  came  pre-installed).  To  powerwash  your 
Chromebook, 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  Chromebook’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  Chromebook  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.
