How do I start a fresh, clean chat in ChatGPT?
Move to a new topic while keeping useful work.
A new chat is a separate conversation. It does not erase saved preferences or memory.
You may need to restate key facts so the new chat has the context you want.
Try this
- Copy anything you need to keep into a private note.
- Choose New chat. Open the chat list if the option is hidden.
- Write the new topic and a few facts that matter.
- Do not assume the new chat has every detail from the old one.
- Choose Send and check the reply.

For memory choices, use Settings, then Personalization on the web.
