Can I exit the Setup Wizard?

A

AC Question

I'm not sure what my kid did, but the phone restarted and now I'm supposed to go through the setup wizard? Am I going to lose everything? I haven't gone through it yet. Is there anyway to stop it so that I don't start over?

Welcome to Android Central! If the Setup Wizard is appearing because your child somehow caused a factory reset, then you've lost your data anyway. But if he just went to the App Drawer and opened the Setup Wizard, then you shouldn't have to worry about losing data. If you can't exit out of the Setup Wizard by tapping Home or Back, then try forcing a shutdown by pressing and holding Power for 15-20 seconds (or, if you have a Samsung device, Power and Vol Down together for 15-20 seconds). Then Power back on normally. If you get the Setup Wizard again, that means the phone had been factory reset.
