[QUOTE="ced89, post: 1903535, member: 407595"] I was goign to reset my new Macbook Air M1, but I clicked there instead of [B]disk utility[/B] and manually formatting the drive later on. Looking online, I've seen one guy doing it... Does it make any difference?? The laptop is brand new from Apple, but I wanted to start afresh anyway. I think that the biggest difference is the full disk encryption, considering that you can encrypt the drive from [B]disk utility [/B]and therefore creating the full disk encryption prior the OS re-installation. Not an issue, previously I was just looking the OS, so I didn't do anything important, but I wonder if the OS reinstallation is actually the whole process I needed. [/QUOTE]
