How can I reset the Dell Venue 7 to factory defaults? I made a password for the Venue but I can’t remember it. I get to the login screen that asks for a password but I can’t get any farther. All the passwords I can think of don’t work. How do I reset to the Dell factory default, or, can I create a boot disk or rescue disk with a MicroSD card? It is running Android.

  1. go to an area where you know your wifi provides open working Internet
  2. on a PC go to Google Device Manager at https://www.google.com/android/find
  3. Find your Dell Venue 7
  4. set a new password
