# Resetting the Results

> Resetting results (or clearing the responses) erases all participant submissions from your presentation, so you can reuse it for a different audience.

Resetting results (or 'clearing the responses') on your presentation means that all submissions made by participants (for example votes on a poll, questions on a Q\&A or emoji reactions) will be erased from your presentation. Any content created by you (questions, poll options, etc.) will be unaffected.

This allows you to reuse presentations for different audiences. Each reset will also **create a new session** in the Report: [Your AhaSlides Presentation Report](/after-the-presentation/your-ahaslides-presentation-report)

## Video and interactive demo: Resetting results (clearing responses)

## What are 'results'?

The 'results' of a presentation refer to **anything submitted to your presentation by your audience**. This includes...

* Votes on a poll
* Submissions to a word cloud
* Answers to quiz questions
* Results on a leaderboard
* All emoji reactions

## What is 'resetting results'?

Reseting the results of a presentation means you will wipe that presentation clear of anything submitted by your participants. This will return your presentation to its state before your participants joined and interacted with it.

## How to reset all results

There are 2 ways to reset all the results from your entire presentation.

1. **From the presentation canvas:**

Click the '**Reset results**' button below the slide canvas.

2. **From the dashboard:**

On the '**My Presentations**' page, click on the 3 dot icon on the right of your presentation (or right-click on the presentation) and choose 'Reset results'.

## How to reset results from a single slide

Rather than resetting results from your whole presentation, you can choose to reset the results of **just one slide**. This is useful if there has been an error on your slide and you want to present it again.

To do this, there are 2 ways:

**1. While editing:**

Navigate to your slide in the left column of the editor, right-click on the slide, then click '**Reset results**'.

**2. While presenting:**

Hover the mouse cursor on the **Menu** icon, then click "**Reset this slide**"
