Installation on second hand Dell Latitude 5420

I purchased a 2021 Dell Latitude 5420 i7 with 16GB from a refurbisher. It runs Windows 10 Pro well as far as I can see, but I want to install Debian since I've preferred it for nearly 20 years. There is a BIOS admin password set, so I cannot change the boot device and install from a USB stick.
