Factory Reset

If you ever accidentally do this (somehow) or regret doing this on a device of yours, you might be headed in this direction.

When information is removed from someone or something instantly, making it as if that information was never there. There are multiple kinds of Factory Reset. One is mental Factory Reset. This involves the subject of the reset completely forgetting their past experiences, most commonly an adventure they had or knowledge they acquired that they, for whatever reason, cannot keep with them in the future. Another kind of Factory Reset small-scale one where someone loses all information in at least one (but not all) fields of knowledge, such as picking up a new language or memory of a series of events. A third type is an actual Factory Reset where someone removes all data from their device and makes it digitally brand new.
