If performing a Factory Reset does not work, you may need to consider performing a Clean Installation of Windows 11.
Find another working computer then download the Media Creation tool (Click Download tool now). Use the tool to "Create installation media (USB flash drive at least 8GB in size) to install Windows 11". Instructions inside the link.
Note: Please make sure to uncheck the "Use the recommended options for this PC" box.

If you want to retrieve your important files, Insert the USB Installation media into your computer. Please change the boot order in the Bios Settings. Boot your PC from the Installation Media you created.
Click Repair your computer > Troubleshoot > Command prompt
Type: notepad.exe
Press Enter
Click File, then Open
This will open a Mini-Explorer that you can use to find folders or individual files that need to backup, right click the files to Send to USB flash drive.
