#### **With the "Reset account" option**

{% hint style="info" %}
This action will **reset some** information associated with your account, including your:

* Balances & NFTs
* Staking
* Crowdloans
* Transactions (History)
* Address book
* Website access config/settings
  {% endhint %}

#### **With the "Erase all" option**

{% hint style="info" %}
This action will **reset all** the information associated with your account.

Besides resetting the information listed like when you click "**Reset account**", it will also reset your:

* List of custom networks and tokens
* Network & asset state (turn on/turn off)
