How do I factory reset my Oculus Quest 2 or Quest?

If you run into problems or want to clear all of your data off your headset, you can do a factory reset. This wipes everything off your Oculus Quest 2 or Quest, and returns it to the software state that it was in when you first took it out of the box

 
To perform a factory reset using your phone:
  1. Open the Oculus app on your phone.
  2. Tap Settings in the bottom menu.
  3. Tap the headset connected to your phone.
  4. Tap More Settings.
  5. Tap Factory Reset and then Reset.
 
To perform a factory reset using the headset:
  1.  Turn off your headset.
  2. Hold the power and volume (-) button on your headset down simultaneously until the boot screen loads on your headset.
  3. Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Factory Reset and press the power button.
  4. Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Yes and press the power button.
Notes:
  • Performing a factory reset is irreversible and will remove all account information, downloaded games, and content from the headset.
  • Performing a factory reset won't remove content you've purchased or downloaded from your account.
