Yubikey reset

[Cromulent]

I have a Yubikey 5C NFC and accidently locked myself out so I downloaded the Yubikey Manager app for my Mac and can see where to reset the device but does that mean all the services I use it with will need to have 2FA reconfigured after the reset or does a reset just set a new PIN and make you log back into your accounts.

If I do lose access to my accounts it'll be annoying but a lesson learned.

I'd imagine its a factory reset, purely guessing

Yeah I think you are right.

I hope you've got backup codes saved for everywhere.

Yeah. I'm not too worried. It'll just make me transfer all my accounts to my newer Yubikey faster as it has a fingerprint reader as well so is better.
