Windows 10: Blocked from logging in

Hi , I’ve have run into an issue with my computer. I have bought a windows 10 computer and it works perfectly fine, but I recently made a passcode for my computer. My children have been wanting to use my computer, but have failed up too the point that my computer is now blocked from many failed attempts at the password . I only have one account on it , and it’s the only administrator account on it. I have inserted the correct password but it says on the screen it has to be powered on for at least 2 hours for another try. Please help me address this issue, and thank you

:)
