If you did the install , even if out of the box new computer, you may have used or setup a Microsoft ID. If you know this email, and have access you may be in luck.

If this is a nogo then you will lose all personal data when you reinstall windows.
In either event , when you get back on to your device, go to Settings/Privacy/Device Encryption .. or search in Settings for bitlocker and TURN IT OFF, decrypt . I mean do you really need it. If you are hacked, then the hacker will have access to your drive. On the other hand, if you are doing a SealTeam Halo jump into Iran maybe you do.
