Android Central Question

I have an android model L58VL C6 and i forgot my password. It also wont hard reset. What should i do?
 
Welcome to Android Central! Are you using this hardware key method to do the factory reset? https://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-rebel-2-l57bl/hardreset/first-method/. If so, then is it asking you for the Google account and password associated with the phone?

It's worth noting that Google's Find My Device feature won't let you remotely change your password. If the phone already has a password, all you can do remotely is to lock the phone (using that password). If the phone didn't have any screen lock set up to begin with, that's when Find My Device will let you create a new password and then lock the phone with it.
