Windows 10: Forgot password

I forgot my window 10 password but i know the PIN of it. My laptop shows some errors while installation of a software and some when using a program.I tried with Cmd promt to change password but not get it also administration access is not working .

I'm not able ro open Manage section through This Pc not opening..

Sign-in option not working to change password.

Web cam stopped working.

And In section of forgot password after answering security Question it asks for USB flash drive .Don't know what to do in that.
