    Trying to Factory Reset Windows 10 w/o Administrator/BitLocker/USB

    Hello,

    I have been trying to reset my Surface Go. I do not have access to the Administrator account, hence why I am trying to factory reset my PC. I do not have a USB available, nor do I have a USB I can use to create a bootable media to reinstall Windows 10. I have tried resetting Windows 10 from the Troubleshoot Menu (Holding Shift while Restarting), but when I complete all the steps, my PC does not factory reset.

    My Version number is 20H2 (OS Build 19042.1052)

    Thanks!
