  1. Here are reset instructions, if the menus are still accessible to you: Reset or restore your Apple TV to its factory settings - Apple Support
  2. If you can’t access the menus (i.e. not functional), then it depends on your model device. Non-4K models can be restored through a USB connected computer. For 4K models you will need assistance from Apple. Restore your Apple TV - Apple Support
  3. If you are still in the beginning setup questions, then you can go back using the Menu or Back button on the remote. Repeat until you get to the Language question.
