H friends Is there a Widget to reset all nodes inside a component? ![image](https://forum-cdn.knime.com/uploads/default/original/3X/8/c/8c16d276b4367137cd6d8437052ffc6049055bfb.png) **Why?** Because the user always forgets to reset nodes. ---

I’ve done some searching and there does not appear to be an easy way to do this. Others smarter than me may offer a solution. A non-code “solution” would be to put a workflow annotation box above the component with large lettering reminding the user to reset the component before executing. If necessary, provide detailed instructions on how to do the reset. ---

@Felipereis50 there is the option to reset on the start of a workflow. > **[Reset on Load — NodePit](https://nodepit.com/node/ws.palladian.nodes.selenium.reset.ResetOnLoadNodeFactory)** > > Resets the following nodes when loading a workflow. Next option could be to use the refresh button > **[Eight Data App Designs with the New Refresh Button | KNIME](https://www.knime.com/blog/eight-data-app-designs-with-new-refresh-button)** > > Deploy data science applications or services as a KNIME Data Apps with greater flexibility using new Refresh Button Widget node. ---

Thank you @mlauber71 The “Reset on Load” node works when the user opens the workflow. However, the ideal solution would be a widget button, putting the user in charge of resetting and then loading. Of course, a user with a little knowledge can click on any blank area of the workflow, which will bring up the “Reset all nodes” option, and then they can click “Execute All.” (print). But, It would be interesting to have this functionality within the Widget. Often, the user updates the data source (Excel, CSV, etc.) after having already opened the workflow, and the only way to perform a refresh is to reset the node and load it again, but the options do not refresh specific nodes inside component. Is more easy for me explain to the user to only focus on double click on the component, choosing options to refresh. **But anyway, thank you.** If a similar option to incorporate these features into a widget configuration becomes available one day, that would be interesting. ![image](https://forum-cdn.knime.com/uploads/default/original/3X/a/c/ac98fdab04faddc7fccff1e17c8e0cc5ced458dd.png) ---

The Reset on Load node is a Selenium node which isn’t free if that matters. ---

Although it is a Selenium node, that particular node is free to use as it has been kindly made available to the community ( thanks @qqilihq !) , so all good ![Screenshot_20250706_192008_Chrome](https://forum-cdn.knime.com/uploads/default/original/3X/5/8/58bc07125e9b8a0d524f6eeb2302b8c8c52c750f.jpeg) The link refers to: > [@Reset nodes](https://forum.knime.com/t/reset-nodes/11507/11): > > Actually, I’ve just figured out that the “Reset on Load” node from the Selenium Nodes will work just fine, even without a valid / active Selenium Nodes license. So consider this node as free goodie from Selenium Nodes to the community. Download instructions for the Selenium Nodes are available here: [Selenium Nodes — Download](https://seleniumnodes.com/download) As we’ve originally created this specifically with a Selenium use case in mind, I’d be curious about improvement suggestions, bug reports, and/or you usage scenarios! – P… ---

The Reset-on-Load node is great. It helps me to run regularly several reports without the need to manually resetting the workflow. ---
