You lost your login details for Linux Mint, your flash drive got damaged, and you don’t have the Windows 10 or Linux installation media. There’s no direct way to pull Windows 10 from the BIOS right now, but you can try restoring your system using a bootable USB or checking if a recovery image exists on another device.

You'll need to either recall your password or transfer Windows from another device. I can't assist with methods to guess the password. https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/software.../windows10

You can restore your Linux Mint password if it isn't protected.

I got the Windows 10 Pro flash drive from eBay and installed it on my PC, but I’m still unable to connect to the internet. I need my computer to function properly.

Internet connectivity depends on a working LAN/WLAN driver, which the Windows ISO might lack for your setup. It can be unreliable. If you own a phone, connect it via USB to access Wi-Fi or cellular data, then verify updates through Device Manager and the Windows Update section, or obtain the software directly from Dell.

I linked my internet through Ethernet but still can’t reach the web, while my regular connection works fine.

I visited my grandmother's house, she gave me her computer. I downloaded Linux Mint and saved the installation file on my USB drive. After returning home, I installed it on my main computer and now I can use it.
