Resetting an Image via Reset Button does not restore original image

In some cases, when I reset an image, it appears that the original is not retrieved. The before and after versions remain differently. I cannot think of any reason, why this should happen. Please help me! Admittedly, I am a relative rookie, so please be gentle if the solution to my problem is an easy one.

Thanks so much.

That is a common misunderstanding. If you press the Reset button, then the image will be reset to the Camera Defaults you have chosen in Preferences - Presets. It will not necessarily be reset to how it appeared when it was imported. For example when you import with 'Embedded & Sidecar' previews it will look different.

Thank Johan for your answer. I am not sure if I get it. What is the point then of the before and after if the before does not show me the image I started from respectively if I cannot get back to where I started? So, what exactly do I need to change in the preference and preset settings to get rid of the problem, is it the "adobe default" that needs to be changed to "camera settings", as indicated in the attached screenshot?

Yes, you can change that to camera settings if you want. That will mimic what you set in the camera, many people like that. Before/After is not set in stone to zero/last. You can also change the before. It's purpose is to quickly compare some adjustments, not necessarily all adjustments versus zero adjustments. Here's a tip. If you want to be able to reset the image to all zero (except for a profile, there is always a profile), then create a "zero all" preset.

In the develop module, what does the history panel show?

What do you feel is the difference to the original?

What is the source of the image and the file format?

The history panel shows a couple of adjustments, which in the final step I reset (zurücksetzen) the reset button. The problem appears with and without a preset applied in the adjustment process (see attached screenshots). In any case, the before version seems to have a cooler temperature, so I could imagine it has something to do with the white balance. The source of the images is my internal ssd, the format is Nikons raw format nef.
