How Do You Factory Reset a Nintendo Switch Lite?

Wondering how to start fresh with your Nintendo Switch Lite? Maybe you’re planning to pass it on or just want a clean slate. Here’s the scoop on resetting it.

So, you’re curious about resetting your Nintendo Switch Lite to its factory settings, huh? Let’s dive into that.

Quick Guide to Factory Resetting Your Switch Lite

Resetting your Switch Lite is a simple process. First, power off your device completely. Then, press and hold the volume up and down buttons along with the power button. You’ll enter the recovery mode menu where you can select “Initialize Console Without Deleting Save Data” or “Initialize Console” for a full reset.

Remember, a full factory reset wipes everything off your device—your game downloads, save data, user info, and all settings. It’s like making your Switch Lite brand new, out of the box. So, make sure you really want to erase all that info before you proceed.
