How to Reset Chromecast - Method 1

Chromecast allows you to broadcast your Chrome window to your TV or other display. Like all electronics, though, things can go wrong. Usually, the easiest way to fix any problem your Chromecast is having is to simply reset it to factory defaults. You'll need to set it up again afterwards, but that only takes a few moments.
