Abhijit,


If you've not created HP Recovery USB after first setup of this notebook, then you need to order HP Recovery USB from HP directly to factory reset OS.

Contact HP: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html

Specs: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c04754429

You could also try clean install of Windows 10 Home 64 bit using Microsoft windows media creation tool by creating bootable installation USB :

Windows will be automatically activated after installation while connected to internet
