Locked out of Windows 10

I was trying to do a clean boot so I could do a memory test on my pc. (It would not engage normally) Now it won't let me past the opening screen because of a problem with my pin. Can someone help me get around this?

    If you forgot pin, you can recover or change it because it is linked with MS account, while entering PIN, select forgot Pin, and select next - next, and it will send otp on phone number or Email. So you can change it. And if not, you have to reinstall windows 10 or 11
