Reboot Your PlayStation: Fix Errors Without Losing the Data
We recommend you consider a PS4 restart for minor glitches. Unlike a factory reset, it won’t wipe data. However, data backup is still suggested.
Note: Avoid selecting “Enter Rest Mode,” as this does not fully power down the console.
Here’s a short tutorial on how you can reboot your PlayStation:
- Hold the PS button on the controller.
- Select the Power option.
- Select “Restart PS3/4/5” to initiate a system reboot.
Note: The system settings will display the PlayStation you’re using. It can either be your PS3, PS4 or PS5.
