What should I do if I got 2:2 honour degree for Computer Science
Recently I am afraid that I am going to get 2:2 degree with my computer science course at Durham University. However I really want to apply for Master degree in 2026. I am thinking of taking a PGDip/PGCert course and then to see if I can get a conditional offer from my master course. Do anyone think this will work?

It might work in terms of getting an offer, but it would be hellish expensive and almost certainly not worth it professionally. You'd do better to get a job that offered some useful training ion the first couple of years, and launch from there.
