"This device was previously set up by a different user, please factory reset the device"

My internet changed awhile ago.. I couldn't figure out how to get it fixed over. I deleted my device from Google home. Now, when I try to log back in I get a message saying "This device was previously set up by a different user, please factory reset the device." But I can't get back into the device to factory reset it. Not sure what to do.

We don't have Chromecast, but you could try contacting Support, using the link and instructions in this post:

Hi folks,

Appreciate your help here, @MplsCustomer.

@Anqxlifly, thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. I suggest you do a full clean-up by performing a factory reset and setting it up from scratch. That link includes a manual way of performing a factory reset, depending on the Chromecast version that you have. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Kimy
