How to Reset and Wipe Xbox One to Factory Settings

  1. In your system, go to Settings. 
  2. Scroll down to System and select Console Info.
  3. Select the Reset Console option.
  4. You will have two choices on the next screen: Reset and Remove Everything or Reset and Keep My Games & Apps.
  5. If you’re planning on selling your system, I recommend you Reset and Remove Everything. This will remove all of your games and information–everything. If you’re having technical issues, I would choose the reset but keep games and apps option.
