Since Win10 came preinstalled on your PC, it was a really BAD idea to mess around with Windows Insider editions.  I used them for months and discovered they can be very buggy -- as basically, they are testing versions.

 

Ordinarily, I would recommend using HP Recovery Media to restore your PC to its original condition. That would erase the entire drive, format the drive, and install the OS, the drivers, and the HP utilities.

Unfortunately, there is no HP Recovery Media linked to the HP Product Page for your PC. So, you will need to contact P Customer Support directly, using the links below, to see if you can order if from them:

If you live in the US or Canada, contact information is on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1

If you live elsewhere, contact information is on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html

NOTE: After you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to some one -- it can take a while!

 

Good Luck

Taking your suggestion i talked to one of the technician and he told to give me the recovery cd for the solution. Looking forward to it.
