How do I get into my PC?

I boot up my "HP Pavillion Gaming Desktop TG01" just to see no place to input a password. My PC uses Windows 11. I have access to Wifi, Accessibility, and Power. I have a Restore Point before this all occurred.

I've tried:

Ctrl+Alt+Delete, nothing happens

Shift+Reset, says please wait, then puts all Devices connected to my PC asleep besides Tower.

Crashing it by powering it off and on 3 times in a row, nothing changes.

Pressing F1-F12 each time I've tried to power it on, puts all Devices connected to my PC asleep besides Tower.

I do not have the money to get it repaired. I was trying to access BIOS before this happend. My PC would load up too fast, so I changed some setting to make it do a thorough start up. I did that so I could try getting into the BIOS.

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Accessibility

    I was so tired I ended up saving your notes until I could work on my computer. I can't use BIOS, so there is no way to change startup usb first.

    Hi Dave, thank you for the information. I was trying to see if there was a way I could fix this asap without using another device, alas, seems as though I might just have to. Thanks again!

    Hi Quincy,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    If you cannot access the recovery environment by crashing your PC 3 times as soon as you see the spinning dots, then you will need to create a bootable Windows 11 USB on another working PC and boot your PC from that, then rather than installing Windows 11, select ‘Repair this Computer’ that will give you access to the Recovery Environment from there

    In the Recovery Environment on the USB, try to perform the System Restore.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Media Creation Tool to create a bootable USB flash drive (min 8GB) using that tool

    Then, Boot your PC from the Installation Media you just created (change Boot Order in your BIOS)
