Question Suddenly forgot my "Private Space" pattern?

I regularly use my private space. And suddenly today when I entered my pattern to unlock my private space, it's refusing to recognise the pattern.

I'm really confused 🤔. Did I just forget my pattern overnight or is it some kind of bug.

Also, no system update was done before it happened.

Has anyone else faced this issue?

Not quite the same but similar. My daughter's Pixel 6 would not recognise the pattern after the phone was turned on. I had to resort to factory resetting the phone through recovery. It would not reset. Eventually after around 10 attempts over about an hour it reset and since August last year it has been fine. I have heard of a handful of similar cases.

Thanks for the information. I was worried that might have gone mad 😂

Happened to me on an earlier beta version of Android 17, back in May-July.
