Factory Ressetting 5130 HP Switch

Hello,

I need help trying to factory reset an HPE 5130 24G Switch. I followed the steps from the article posted about resetting a 5120 switch, but I'm running into a roadblock. I brought up the Boot Menu, selected option 5 but got an error stating that the Password recovery capability is enabled. To perform this operation, first
disable the password recovery capability using the undo password-recovery
enable command in CLI. On the 5120 discussion it stated that if this was the case to use option 7. Option 7 didn't work either.  I'm just trying to wipe the switch clean and start from scratch I'm not trying to save any configuration or anything like that. Is there anything I'm missing?
