How to maybe emulate HTC10 so i can open a backup...

[Aza Allen]

This might be a dumb way to go about this but I was hoping to find an HTC emulator so that I could open an old HTC 10 backup so that I could get back into my Google account that I'm locked out of because the to 2FA blocked me out even though I never set it up and I don't have the phone or the phone number anymore but I remember the password which isn't helping at all

Nope. Not possible

There are several reasons I don't think the would work even if that emulator existed, but the fact that it doesn't is enough.

You best bet is to try one of the other account recovery methods for your Google account.

Late last year Google started implementing 2FA to higher level, forcing us to actually take securing our Google accounts more seriously.

But really, instead of trying to use oddball 'hacks' to somehow 'game the system', just go through the arduous process of verifying yourself to the Google gods to re-gain full access to your account again.
