@Moi1400 -- were the files on the USB memory-stick created as a "bootable" device, or are the files, one ".bin" file, and maybe on ".sig" file, stored in the root-directory on the memory-stick?
If the former, force the computer to boot from the USB memory-stick.
If the latter, power-off your computer, connect the USB memory-stick, and power-on your computer. It should automatically try to access those files, and do the BIOS Recovery.
What have you tried? What did you expect to happen? What actually did happen?

@Moi1400 -- something is strange. If a bootable system was really written to the USB memory-stck, and you booted from it, it should have applied the update. On the other hand, if the memory-stick only contains the ".bin" and ".sig" files in the root-directory, then the motherboard should have "found" the memory-stick device, and should have found those two files.

@Moi1400 -- im paying like 50 usd to fix it if i dont get help
In my $30,000 (CAD) automobile, I took a corner too sharply, and sliced a tire.
Total repair costs: $170 for a tow to the dealer (my vehicle has no spare tire, not even a "mini", and no jack), $200 (and 2 days) for a replacement tire, and $100 for the mechanic's services.
So, in my opinion, paying $50 to fix a $1000 computer is a reasonable cost, compared to replacing the computer with a "ready-for-Windows-11" system.
