How to factory reset the Poly Studio X72, and when you should (and shouldn't).

How to factory reset the Studio X72
Factory restore: disconnect power; insert a straightened paper clip into the factory restore pinhole on the bottom and hold it while reconnecting power; release when the LED turns amber.
Before you reset
- A factory reset erases settings, sign-in and pairing. You'll need to set the device up again.
- Try a simple restart first: unplug power for 30 seconds.
- If the device is managed by IT, check with them; it may need to be re-enrolled in the management portal.
After the reset
Set it up again with our Studio X72 setup guide, then update the firmware.
