No, restoring licenses on PS5 does not delete anything. It's a safe process designed to refresh your console's understanding of the games and content you own digitally. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
Steps to Restore Licenses on PS5:
-
Turn on your PS5 and make sure you're logged in to your PlayStation account.
- Go to Settings. You can find the settings icon in the top right corner of the main screen.
- Navigate down to Users and Accounts.
- Select Other. This option might be located at the bottom of the Users and Accounts menu.
- Choose Restore Licenses.
- Confirm the selection by choosing Restore.
The PS5 will now initiate the license restoration process. It might take a few minutes to complete. Once finished, you'll be notified on screen.
Important Notes:
- Restoring licenses won't affect your saved game data, trophies, profiles, or any downloaded games.
- This process is helpful if you're encountering issues where your PS5 doesn't recognize your ownership of digital games or content.
