To open the factory reset menu on most devices, you generally need to power off the device first. Then, press and hold specific buttons (often Volume Up + Power or Volume Down + Power) simultaneously until the recovery menu appears. Navigate using the volume buttons and select 'Factory Reset' with the power button. Always check your device manual for exact instructions, as this may vary. Ensure you back up your data before proceeding, as a factory reset will erase all your personal information.
