Can't Reset Mission

[Rudra]

Normally, if something goes sideways on a timed mission, I can exit, reset the mission by choosing another mission or logging off for a while, and then going back to it. In the Rescue the Auction House Workers from Dr. Ann-Marie Engles, I cannot reset the mission. Please note that I am not talking about the timer. The timer always keeps counting down. I am talking about the mission objectives getting reset. I do this from time to time when I suffer a defeat on a mission. (Edit: Yes, I even quit the game and waited to make sure I could reset the objectives.)

Sometimes choosing a different mission and entering it will reset the first one. You could also try dropping it if you have that option.

Edit:

Things I did to reset the mission (with no success):

Grab a radio mission and set to active mission, clicking to accept abandoning the timed mission.

Logged to a different character, started a solo TF, entered first TF mission, quit TF, then logged back to first character.

Logged to a different character, selected an available mission as active, entered mission, then quit the game and waited 5 minutes.

Quit game again, waited 5 minutes, cleared system memory, then re-checked timed mission.

But did you change to a different mission on the affected character and actually enter/complete that second mission? Can you drop the timed mission and take it again?

Yes, I changed to a different mission on the affected character as per below:

No, I did not complete the second mission. That is never necessary for a reset. I am not aware of any timed missions having the option to drop. No, I cannot check to see if I can drop the timed mission and then take it again, it is a timed mission that I got over 2 hours ago.

 

Edit: And quitting (logging off the game completely), waiting for at least 5 minutes, and then wiping my own system's memory should have reset the timed mission's objectives for when I logged back in the game.

I'm experiencing this issue as well. The mission is "Disrupt Warrior Training", the first task from Alexander 'The Great' Pavlidis. I forgot to enable bosses so I stepped out, took a separate mission from another contact, reset to that mission, and then reset back. It didn't reset the mission. So I logged out, still didn't work. Tried resetting and then relogging, nothing. Tried joining another team and completed the team mission.  (I don't know how long I was on that team but it was not a speed run; definitely more than 5 minutes.) The mission is still not reset. The map is still open and there are no bosses.
