reset buttons
Device restart triggers
Reset buttons are controls that restore a device or system to its original state.
On electronics, they clear errors or restart operation—often recessed to prevent accidental pressing.
On web forms, they clear entered data.
Figuratively, a reset button is any chance to start over: I wish life had a reset button.
