I have a form that I localized into German, but I want to go back to what
is on the default and start over... I tried deleting the .de.resx file but
that only led to lots of errors... How do I start a localazation over
from scratch??

What errors?
Unless we know them, how can we help.

On the surface -- the references to the IDs would be missing.

I didn't figure the specific error's would matter... In fact forget that I
ever mentioned errors.

My question is simply "How do I reset a localization that I've done, so
that it is the same as the 'default'"? For example, I've done a
localization for Germany, and now I want to "delete" the localization for
Germany so that I can start over. How would I do that?

Have you tried setting the Form Language property to "(default)" and then
the Localizable property to False?
You'd still have to maually delete your Form1.de.resx file but it should
work.

Please let me know if you have issues.

It depends on whether this is a web or windows forms project. For Windows
Forms, you can use the designer localization functionality to add the new
elements to your localized form. If you have removed elements, you would
have to remove those elements from the .resx file manually. If it's a web
form project, you should be able to copy and paste over the old file with
the new file. However, the best way to manage this would be to use a
localization tool, like Passolo or Alchemy Catalyst, so you can use the
built in update management.
Hope this helps, Marin Millar [MSFT]

There's nothing like resetting a localization.

Look in your .csproj file (the project file), there would be a mention
to the resources (resx) file. There would be an entry similar to:

<File
RelPath = "File.aspx.resx"
DependentUpon = "File.aspx.cs"
BuildAction = "EmbeddedResource"
/>
