If you are using local user to sign in, you will need to answer the security questions if they have ever been set up, or use a password recovery USB if you have made one prior to this.

Or, if you have another admin user on this computer you can log into, then you can launch netplwiz and change your own user's password while signing in as the other admin user.

Otherwise, there's no other way around this. You will need to clean install Windows in that case.

    If you have forgotten the password for your local account on Windows 11, you can reset it using the following methods:

    1. Use a Password Reset Disk: If you created a password reset disk before forgetting your password, you can use it to reset your password.
    2. Reset via Microsoft Account: If your local account is linked to a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online by visiting the Microsoft account recovery page. Follow the instructions provided there to regain access.
    3. Use Safe Mode: You can try booting into Safe Mode and accessing the built-in Administrator account, which might allow you to reset your password.
    4. Reinstall Windows: As a last resort, if you cannot recover your password, you may need to reinstall Windows. This will erase all data on your system, so it should only be considered if you have no other options.

    For further assistance, you may want to refer to the Microsoft support documentation or contact their support team.
