How do I reset NVRAM on a newer Mac with M1 chip?
I believe you can clear the NVRAM on an M1 Mac (definitely works on an Intel Mac) using the command line with the Terminal app:
sudo nvram -c
Press the "Return" key at the end of the line to execute the command. You will be prompted for your admin password. Nothing will appear on the screen as you type the password. You need to press the "Return" key to submit the password.
I have not tried using this command to clear the NVRAM on an M1 Mac. I do know that the "nvram" command does work to display the current NVRAM settings:
nvram -p
I still don't know how NVRAM works with an M1 Mac yet.
