SXTsq 5 ac - deleting configuration before selling

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi,

I plan to sell my SXTsq 5 ac so I want to delete my old configuration with passwords etc.

I reset the device and the configuration is gone.

Are there any automatic configuration backups I must delete manually?

Thank you for your answers :slight_smile:

Simply reset configurations and make sure that file list is empty.

Setting it to default config would be ok. Don’t just set it to clean config.
Empty config can be a PITA for the next user.

Thank you for your answer.

I deleted the files except for the the “Flash” folder - the type column says it’s a disk.

The memory still seems to be used by something: 12.6 MiB of 15.2 MiB used.

Hi, it seems that the reset set it back to the factory settings - admin without password, LAN ip 192.168.88.1, etc.

It’s normal that a lot space is used because it’s RouterOS installed on your device. So you can’t see these files for security reasons.

Regards.
