Delete all keys from a NSUserDefaults dictionary iOS

Question

I use the NSUserDefaults dictionary to store basic information such as high scores etc so that when the user closes the app data is not lost. Anyways I use:

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

to store data. If I wish to store a new high score for example then I would do:

[prefs setInteger:1023 forKey:@"highScore"];
[prefs synchronize];  //this is needed in case the app is closed. 

and later if I wish to retrieve the high score I would do:

[prefs integerForKey:@"highScore"];

anyways the point is that I store a lot of other things because the NSUserDefaults enable you to store booleans, integers, objects etc. what method would I have to execute to delete all keys so that NSUserDefaults becomes like the fist time I launch the app?

I am looking for something like:

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
[prefs deleteAllKeysAndObjectsInTheDictionary];

or maybe there is a way of getting all keys and I have to loop through each object but I don't know how to remove them.

EDIT:

I have tried :

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
[NSUserDefaults resetStandardUserDefaults];
[prefs synchronize];

and I still am able to retrieve a high score....

If you have a look at the NSUserDefaults documentation you will see a method - (NSDictionary *) dictionaryRepresentation. Using this method on the standard user defaults, you can get a list of all keys in the user defaults. You can then use this to clear the user defaults:

- (void)resetDefaults {
    NSUserDefaults * defs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
    NSDictionary * dict = [defs dictionaryRepresentation];
    for (id key in dict) {
        [defs removeObjectForKey:key];
    }
    [defs synchronize];
}
