Product: HP Envy Desktop TE-01-1175xt
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello all:  Just purchased this unit (HP Envy Desktop TE-01-1175xt) yesterday.  Thought the front-mounted USB-C was thunderbolt compatible.  I was wrong.  So upset.  I need to determine if I can purchase a compatible Thunderbolt PCIe Card to install on this motherboard (whatever it is, I don't know).  I am attempting to use Universal Audio Apollo x8p audio converter unit with this PC.   I  emphatically need and require Thunderbolt 3.  Corporate has been less than helpful in this regard.  I am afraid I will have to return it if I can't get the Thunderbolt installed some way.  Pleaseeeee help.  Thank you with all kindness.  Luke

Thunderbolt has a "lightning bolt symbol" at the port.

Thunderbolt card requires a  PCIex4 slot.  You unit does not have it.
