Also popular under the name of a master or factory reset, this procedure is very simple and only takes about 5 minutes once you’re done going through the necessary steps. Including the backup you’ll need to make in advance, as all files will be deleted, and the time it takes to go into your settings and give the necessary commands to the device, it can take up to half an hour to do the whole thing. This is a recommended operation because it’s fast, very efficient and does no damage to the device.

Here is the first method to bring back your device to a functional state and get it up and running without problems:
- From the main screen you have to select Windows Phone Settings
- From the Widows Phone Settings menu, you will have to select About icon.
- You have to touch the Reset your phone.
- Choose Ok and the process will begin. Your phone will reboot with the factory settings.
- Your phone will restart and it will start up with the factory settings.
The second method uses the hardware buttons and works when the phone is unresponsive and you can`t access the menu of the device. Make sure you have the battery charged because if the phone turns off unexpectedly during the process, your device may be affected. Now you can try the following steps:
- Turn off your device.
- Press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down button.
- Release the buttons when your device vibrates.
- Press Volume Up then Volume down then Power button and the Volume down again.
- Your phone will reset to its factory settings.
