Hi @DLT_Help 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.

 

If you've installed a new motherboard on your HP All-in-One Desktop PC 24-cr0000a and need a recovery key, here are some steps to help you retrieve it:

 

 

Check Your Microsoft Account:

If BitLocker encryption was enabled, the recovery key is often stored in your Microsoft account. Log in to Microsoft's BitLocker Recovery Key page to check for the key.

 

Reinstall Windows: In this case, we have to reload the Windows from the scratch.

 

First, we need to download the Windows image onto a 32GB or 64GB USB flash drive (Flash drive only, memory cards and USB hard drives are not supported; It has to be 32GB or 64B only)

You can download the Windows image through the 'HP Cloud Recovery App', which can be downloaded from the Windows Store.

 

Refer to Step 2 on the link below:

 

And follow Step 4 to reload Windows from the newly created USB recovery media.
