I recommend delving into the Lost Sector in the Braytech Futurescape. There’s a scannable in there that has information on the Exos.
To summarize as best I can (not near my computer to pull up my lengthy essay on the subject) reboots occur when the human mind begins to reject the machine body.
The two counters to this rejection are, as stated beforehand, a hard reset of the mind. It’s like hitting “factory reset” on a computer.
The second counter that we know of is programming human mannerisms into the exo frame. The need to eat, sleep, and such other things are coded in to better mimic a natural body.
Using both of these, exoscience advanced by a lot, and rejection of the mind became much less of a problem than before.

Wasn’t cayde one of the earlier ones to change into an exo? From my understanding he owed a debt and to pay it off became an exo. Why hasn’t he reset as much as the newer models since he is one of the old ones. Do you think maybe it was because he accepted himself turning into an exo? Hopefully none of this sounds dumb I’m still getting into the lore scene.

Technically, I’m a lore newbie too, I just paid more attention to the Exos than everything else. We have little to no information about how the Exos actually work, so it’s entirely possible that that would be the case. All we really know so far are what’s shared here already plus... well... not much. Whatever update takes on the Deep Stone Crypt will be the massive lore bomb we’ve been needing. I think he could’ve come to terms with it, yes.

It's like downloading a human's consciousness into a drive that can be placed into an Exo. The problem was the "brain" rejected the host body (or it's own reality). To fix this, the data on the "brain" is wiped so it's more accepting of the host.

The mind naturally begins to reject the foreign body. Like having a blood transfusion with non-matching type I assume. The body can’t handle what isn’t familiar.

I'm just more curious about in what instances an Exo *Guardian* has to be rebooted. Because you would assume Exo Guardians could just be respawned, rather than having to be rebooted and installed in a new body. I love those recordings though, especially as they tie in to Westworld and their whole problem of uploading human conciousness into a new body.

Seeing as how many named Exo Guardians have lower numbers, it's possible that Guardians suffer this problem less than non-guardian Exos such as Banshee due to the Ghosts. However, the age of the Guardian may also be a factor since older Guardians have had more time to begin the rejection process.

To be fair, we don’t know how ghost revives might effect the mind. If it takes a snapshot of your guardian on the moment of death and rebuilds them from surrounding elements (as I’m fairly sure it’s been said that that’s what happens), there’s nothing that would prevent the mind from rejecting the body. That is to say, the Light resurrecting the guardian doesn’t have additional buffers to protect an exo specifically, meaning exo guardians can still succumb to the baser faults that being an exo would bring. (Take note here of the (?) Jade Rabbit lore tab on that immortal drug stuff that helps with the side effects on mortal minds of being immortal and feeling full pain.) As we still don’t know much about Exos and what specifically qualifies a reboot and number shift I think it’s safe to assume that they happen in the event of existential crisis, great mental trauma, the effects of the aforementioned rejection of a human mind in a mechanical body, or a culmination of all three. TL;DR The Light does nothing to help prevent reboots. Exos are exos. From: a player with three exo characters. <3
