Post subject:  [SOLVED] - Overwriting/restoring slot 1 configuration

One question about the Yubikey Neo that I was unable to find an answer to:

If I overwrite the original config in slot 1 (YubiCloud authentication, CC key) with something else (VV key), will I be able to later restore the original config?

I'd like to test the various options offered by the key, but before overwriting the original config, I want to make sure I will be able to restore it later :)

Thank you!

No, it will be lost and you will never be able to put a CC credential in there again.

Please use configuration slot 2 for testing. You can swap 1 and 2 in the settings of the Yubikey if you prefer the short press.

Once you are happy with the results, consider if you need the Yubico OTP in the future before deleting it.

You can re-create a Yubico VV credential, but not all services may accept VV keys (the forum does).

Thank you!

One more thing - could you please tell me where I can find the setting to swap slot 1 and slot 2? I do not see it in Yubikey Personalization Tool / Settings...

[ Edit - got it! In case anyone else is looking for it, it's in the Personalization Tools / Settings / Update Settings (?!) / Swap ]
