The process to factory reset a MacBook depends on the macOS version it's running. Here's a general guideline:

For macOS Ventura (latest) or later:

  1. Click on the Apple menu () in the top left corner.
  2. Select System Settings.
  3. Choose General from the sidebar.
  4. Click on Transfer or Reset on the right.
  5. Click Erase All Content and Settings.

For older macOS versions:

  1. Click on the Apple menu () in the top left corner.
  2. Select System Preferences.
  3. Look for Erase All Content and Settings.
  • If you don't see it directly, try searching for "Erase" using the search bar in System Preferences.

Important Note: Performing a factory reset will erase all your data and settings on the MacBook. Always back up your important files before proceeding.
