How can I revert my iPad to original Home Screen?

I was installing Earthlink on my iPad. A screen came up and I clicked on it. It installed a different Home Screen and added lots of apps. I want my original home settings back! All my saved info is gone.

Perhaps the change relates to your Home and/or Lock Screen Wallpaper images.


iPad Wallpaper can be set from WallPaper Settings and from the lock screen.

Change the wallpaper on iPad - Apple Support


Custom Wallpaper can be removed,if necessary, from the Lock Screen. To delete from the Lock Screen - while the iPad is at the unlocked Lock Screen - touch and hold to expose the Wallpaper selection page. To delete an unwanted Wallpaper, simply swipe upwards - and confirm deletion.
