One way to is do an Advanced Startup from Windows 10 itself (which you say you're running):

Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Restart Now

BIOS settings are specific to your hardware, not to the operating system. So, it depends entirely on what your computer's BIOS hotkey is. Either you are waiting too long to press the key, or you are pressing the incorrect one.
