No more access to Home Assistant

Configuration
1

Hello everyone,
I wanted to follow https://www.makeuseof.com/secure-home-assistant-installation-free-ssl-certificate/'s tutorial with Cloudfare

And I must have made a mistake somewhere because I no longer have access to HA at all. Neither locally, nor on the web.
How can I reset my installation to blank (factory)?
I had just started up, so I wouldn’t lose much.
Or is there another solution?

How did you install HA ?

3

I took an HA green, so plug and play

4

Can you attach a keyboard and monitor ?

5

I haven’t tested it. You have to connect a screen via HDMI and a keyboard via USB, right?

6

Correct.

then the commands to run are

core stop
login
rm -rf /config

and your HA is blank, next reboot you will get the onboarding screen again.

I’ll give it a try, thank you.

8

Excuse me, but what am I using to type these command lines? As I don’t have access to HA? With software?

9

That is why I asked if you could connect keyboard and monitor.

You have a blank configuration without having lost the other elements.
