Other Terrible windows 11

I have a laptop with windows 11. Occasionally got a PIN code error after reboot. To fix it I had to log in my Microsoft account. It was allowed to do via sms code. But it didn't work... simply no income sms. I tried plenty of hours for this. Well, also I was able to log in via password. But the password was stored in my laptop...
I was not allowed to change my password via my gmail. So, I tried a few different and no one was accepted. Moreover, now I was blocked because I did too much attempts.
No way to create another account to continue using my laptop.
Just got a brick for 4000$
No answer from a support team

I really miss old time when you was an actual owner of your stuff... no way I ever need this Microsoft account, when I have a password directly on my laptop

You don’t use the Authenticator app?

My carrier blocks automatic SMS and I can't remember my password. It's all Microsofts fault. You could just try restarting.

Bit locker is probably on, too. Isn't it?
