Windows 10: Windows 11 pro now not recognizing my password

Purchased a used Lenovo E15 laptop with a fresh clean install of Windows 11 pro. Logged in with Admin, set up my new password, 3 security questions, my fingerprint, and even my photo. I did select to connect with my other devices. Logged out and not able to login again. Says wrong password, mt 3 security questions are wrong. What should I do now?

You can reset the Admin Password using Windows XP repair; See Here for step by step.

Lost My Administrator Password

To which "this" are you referring?
- If you are following the tutorial Bree suggested in the very first reply to your question then what you need to do at each step is explained in detail. So which step are you at?
- If you are following a different procedure then state what it is and which step you are at. If, for example, you are trying to manually enable the Built-In Admin as suggested in post #11 then that account has no password.
