What does it mean to restart a WP device?

[Windows Central Question]

I am hit by PIN issue in build 10149. They suggest a restart, but what does a restart mean? Soft reset? Hard reset? Something else?

Thanks!

If you are hit by pin issue you need to WAIT.

People, please read the release notes before installing alpha software on your phone...

My head hurts...
