how to unlock hp tablet

[Vklich]

What do I do if my tablet is locked. Can’t turn off. I deleted all data so I could reset it. I’m trying to get a new password since I don’t have the original password. My screen is locked on a arrow screen.

I don’t know the model#, it was my Dads & I just started to fool around w it. I tried all the suggestions but now all it shows us the setup options & it’s stuck on that screen. Can’t even start over. Embarrassing to say but I am NOT computer savvy what so ever.

Thank u
