HOW TO OVERRIDE GUIDED ACCESS

My ipad doesnt have a password on it. My brother started guided access on it and set up a password but typed it in wrong so now it is stuck on guided access. Restarting it doesnt work. You cant delete the app that its stuck on through itunes on my computer since apple took away that app button on the PC. We had read something about just letting it die but like we kinda need to use it ASAP because my moms a teacher and she uses it in her classroom everyday. Please help! We have no clue what to do at this point!!!

iPad 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 10.3.3

You have to install to factory setting. You will need to restore from a time when guided access was not one the machine.

Restore to factory settings by loading the latest version of ios that your machine will support:

2) Three ways of restoring your ipad. [ as easy as abc ]

2.a) "You can use iTunes to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to factory settings and the latest version of iOS."

2.b) Be a little more insistent: "You can put your iOS device into recovery mode, then restore it using iTunes.:

3.c) At last resort you could consider DFU (Device Firmware Update). This could void your warranty.
