			Commit 800a2e2d35 introduced a way to disable the conversion of `--`into an en dash on docs.podman.io, so the ugly workaround of escaping the dashes is no longer necessary. Signed-off-by: Paul Holzinger <paul.holzinger@web.de>

| ## NAME
 | |
| podman\-system\-reset - Reset storage back to initial state
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## SYNOPSIS
 | |
| **podman system reset** [*options*]
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## DESCRIPTION
 | |
| **podman system reset** removes all pods, containers, images and volumes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| This command must be run **before** changing any of the following fields in the
 | |
| `containers.conf` or `storage.conf` files: `driver`, `static_dir`, `tmp_dir`
 | |
| or `volume_path`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| `podman system reset` reads the current configuration and attempts to remove all
 | |
| of the relevant configurations. If the administrator modified the configuration files first,
 | |
| `podman system reset` might not be able to clean up the previous storage.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## OPTIONS
 | |
| #### **--force**, **-f**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Do not prompt for confirmation
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### **--help**, **-h**
 | |
| 
 | |
| Print usage statement
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## EXAMPLES
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Switching rootless user from VFS driver to overlay with fuse-overlayfs
 | |
| 
 | |
| If the user ran rootless containers without having the `fuse-overlayfs` program
 | |
| installed, podman defaults to the `vfs` storage in their home directory. If they
 | |
| want to switch to use fuse-overlay, they must install the fuse-overlayfs
 | |
| package. The user needs to reset the storage to use overlayfs by default.
 | |
| Execute `podman system reset` as the user first to remove the VFS storage. Now
 | |
| the user can edit the `/etc/containers/storage.conf` to make any changes if
 | |
| necessary. If the system's default was already `overlay`, then no changes are
 | |
| necessary to switch to fuse-overlayfs. Podman looks for the existence of
 | |
| fuse-overlayfs to use it when set in the `overlay` driver, only falling back to vfs
 | |
| if the program does not exist. Users can run `podman info` to ensure Podman is
 | |
| using fuse-overlayfs and the overlay driver.
 | |
