Clearing an eToken

The Clear function enables you to delete all deletable objects on your token. Objects types include data objects (profiles), keys and certificates (CA or user).

Non-deletable objects will not be removed. Non-deletable objects are created when the administrator configures the object attributes.

The Clear function leaves the data structure your eToken intact. It is less wide-reaching than the Initialize function which restores an eToken to its initial state, removing all objects stored on the eToken since manufacture and resets the eToken password.
