Microsoft Windows 11

While trying to reset my computer to factory, windows asks for additional software that came with the computer on disc or thumb drive. I never received any software with my computer. How do I go about getting it? My software has to be downloaded from hp but not on the support pages.

Hi @Mary453 

 

Your PC should support HP Cloud Recovery.

 

Check this Site for details.

The hp cloud is what is asking for additional software? I think it maybe for model specific drivers. not sure but without the additional software it will not finish the install. Thanks for the reply Bill.

Hi @Mary453 

 

My pleasure.

 

I don't know what software or driver you would need. You have a CTO PC. I can't find any specific HP info for this product.

 

I don't know if you have an Intel or AMD system. Most components except for the MB and higher powered CPUs would be standard stuff. I can't think of any special operating system driver needed to run a Intel "K" CPU or a Ryzen "X" CPU. The MB's BIOS takes care of this.

 

I would contact HP Support unless a different forum member knows what is happening.

 

Regards
