CONFIGURING BASIC SETTINGS Factory Restore Note: For information about using the Reset button to return the password and network mode to factory settings, see "Resetting the My Book Live" on page 129. In this area of the Settings page, the Administrator can choose a short factory restore or a full one. The drive loses all information, and the Administrator password returns to none. Note: A Quick Factory Restore formats the drive, while a Full Factory Restore securely erases the drive. Important: You may want to export and save the drive's current configuration before restoring factory default settings so that you can import it afterwards. Note that importing a configuration in this case does not restore shares, users, or Twonky. If you want to restore the complete contents of a My Book Live including user settings, backups, and data, use the safepoint feature described on page 89. To restore factory defaults: 1. For Restore Type, select Quick Factory Restore (default setting) or Full Factory Restore and click the Start button. 2. When asked to confirm the action, click the Yes button to continue or the No button to return to the Utilities page. 3.
