How to factory reset the Meta Quest 3

As with consoles, PCs, and other tech devices, you may occasionally find a reason to factory reset your Meta Quest 3. Whether you’re selling your headset or simply wanting to get a fresh start, you’ll want to be sure your data is fully cleared from its memory. In this guide, we’ll explain two methods you can use to factory reset your Quest 3

Note: Performing a factory reset on your Quest 3 won’t delete the games you’ve purchased or make any changes to your Meta account. It will, however, erase all of the games you have downloaded on the headset itself, meaning you’ll also lose access to any save data that isn’t stored in a cloud. Proceed with caution and be certain you’re ready to wipe the headset before continuing.
