How to Reset Parental Controls Passcode PIN on PS5 Account (100% Fast!)
To reset the parental controls passcode on a PlayStation 5 if forgotten, you must restore the console to factory settings, as there’s no direct passcode reset option. Here’s how:
Back Up Data (Optional but Recommended):
Save game data, screenshots, and other content to avoid permanent loss.
Go to Settings, System, Back Up and Restore, Back Up Your PS5. Use a USB drive or PlayStation Plus cloud storage if subscribed.
Sync trophies with PlayStation Network under Trophies, Sync with PlayStation Network.
Access Settings:
Sign in with any account. If restrictions prevent login, use Safe Mode (Step 4).
Navigate to Reset Options:
From the home screen, select the gear icon for Settings.
Go to System, System Software, Reset Options, Reset Your Console.
Reset via Safe Mode (if Settings is inaccessible):
Turn off the PS5 completely, not in Rest Mode.
Hold the power button until a second beep, about 7 seconds, to enter Safe Mode.
Connect a controller via USB and press the PS button.
Select Reset PS5 from the Safe Mode menu.
Perform the Factory Reset:
Choose Reset PS5 (Reinstall System Software) if prompted. This erases all data, including the passcode, and resets the console.
Follow on-screen instructions. You may need a USB drive with the latest PS5 system software, downloadable from PlayStation’s official site.
Set Up the PS5 Again:
Follow the on-screen setup process post-reset.
Sign in with your PlayStation Network account and restore backed-up data if available.
Set a New Passcode:
As the family manager, go to Settings, Family and Parental Controls, PS5 Console Restrictions.
Set a new four-digit passcode, default is 0000 after reset. Choose a secure, memorable passcode and store it safely.
Configure child account restrictions as needed.
