How Do I Clear The Data on My HP iPAQ? By performing a hard reset, you can return the unit to its original factory settings so that your personal data no longer resides on the HP iPAQ. A hard reset clears all user-installed settings, applications, and data from RAM (Random Access Memory). Refer to the previous question "How Do I Perform a Hard ("Full") Reset?" for more information. Note: If you have data stored in iPAQ File Store, you must manually delete these files for them to be permanently removed from the HP iPAQ. A hard reset does not delete files saved in iPAQ File Store. To delete files in iPAQ File Store: 1. From the Start menu, tap Programs > File Explorer > My Device > iPAQ File Store. 2. Tap the Edit tab > Select all. 3. Tap and hold the files, and then tap Delete. 4. Tap Yes to confirm the file deletion. How Do I Regain Access to My HP iPAQ if I Forgot My Password?
