Unable to restore iPhone 5c

My daughter uses my old iPhone 5c for music and games. She changed the passcode and now she can’t remember what it is. She tried too many times, and now the only message we get is that the phone is disabled and to connected to iTunes. I tried connecting ITunes following the instructions to restore. It will download software but than it’s like the phone times out and starts to power on and never completes. Any ideas?

iPhone 5c, iOS 10

Hey there!


Make sure you do not unplug the device from the computer until it is all set up.
