[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1898506, member: 396914"] Ann, on the new one there is a quick reset process. No need to reinstall the OS on M1 Macs running Monterey. From that same site: [URL="https://eclecticlight.co/2021/11/23/erase-all-contents-and-settings-prepare-your-mac-for-disposal-and-more/"]Erase All Contents and Settings: prepare your Mac for disposal and more[/URL] Howard refers to EACAS, which is new with the M1 and (I think) Monterey. Much faster than trying a full reinstall. Well, I don't think it matters, but follow his guidance. I didn't have anything in the new user on the new machine so replacing it was replacing nothing. In any event, it works. [/QUOTE]
