Factory reset for GS108E v4
I want to do a factory reset for my switch GS108E v4. There is no factory reset button. Password has been lost.

ThLa,
Welcome to the community!
Not sure if you have the GS108E or the GS108v4, in any case, the latter is an unmanaged switch and so it doesn't have a reset button.
But if it's the GS108E, it should have a Factory Defaults button located at the front panel on the right-hand side where you just press and hold the button for about 5 seconds to perform a Factory Defaults.
To confirm, it would be best if you could attach a photo of the device (please blur/hide the serial number of the device if ever).
Regards,
