reinitialization
Starting over again
Reinitialization is the process of starting something over from the beginning, returning a system, device, or process to its original state.
In computing, this typically means resetting software, hardware, or variables to their initial values, often to clear errors or restore default settings.
After the crash, reinitialization of the database took several hours.
The term extends to any context where something previously set up must be configured fresh again.
