Windows 10: Why after an update I can't login on my laptop on Windows 11?

My laptop has a password and a pin to login. I have been only using the pin. After several months I cannot remember my password anymore. Today after an update, I cannot use anymore the pin function and I can't remember my password. I have tried all the options of passwords that come out of my mind. The system is not providing me hints or security questions. It also asks for an USB when trying to reset the password, which I have no clue what it means. This is deeply annoying, because now I can't use my laptop.
