DeviceReset Method

DeviceReset()

Perform a device-wide factory reset on a YubiKey Bio Multi-protocol Edition key.

C#

void DeviceReset()

Remarks

Resets ALL YubiKey applications (including FIDO and PIV) on the key to factory settings. This type of reset is only available on YubiKey Bio Multi-protocol Edition keys.

A reset will delete all FIDO2 credentials, fingerprints, and associated information, remove the shared PIN, delete all PIV keys and certificates from PIV slots (except the F9 attestation slot), remove any information added to the PIV data elements, and set the PIV PUK and management key back to their factory default states.
