Does anyone have a tip?
Can you reboot Windows?
If it blue-screens again, then reboot Windows.
After a few attempts, Windows should load a "recovery" menu.
From that menu, you can open a command-line window.
Then, use the "/S" option of the "DIR" command to "search everywhere" (on a specific drive-letter) to locate that file:
CD \
DIR /S *find-this-file-name*
to match all occurrences of any file matching that "pattern" of letters.

3. So I download form Microsoft : MediaCreationTool1803.exe and create a bootable USB Device with Windows 10.
4. When I install Windows 10 I need to install the LAN driver (Intel I219 NIC Drivers for DTO Microsoft Win 10 -64bit sp88149),
5. after this Windows Update is starting to download and install 7 updates:
- Definition Update for Windows Defender Antivirus KB2267602 (definition 1.277.871.0)
- HP Development Company, L.P. - Keyboard - 7/11/2018 12:00:00 AM - 11.0.3.1
- 2018-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64 based Systems (KB4462919)

- 2018-09 Security Update for Adobe Flash Player for Windows 10 Version 1803 for x64-based Systems (KB4457146)
6. After finishing these update it required a restart. I restart the PC and get WDF_VIOLATION.
7. Not possible to repair windows, not possible to go back to a previous restore point.
1. Was your intent to install Windows without the additional HP-provided software?
Did you try using "Add/Remove Programs" to delete specific software?
Did you run the HP-provided program to fill a USB memory-stick with the "factory-image" of the disk-drive?
2. Some of that alleged "bloatware" is useful:
- HP Client Security Manager - possibly, an anti-virus-and-more package?
- HP Connection Optimizer
- HP Device Access Manager
- HP Documentation - possibly useful
- HP ePrint SW - possibly useful for directly printing to wireless HP printers
- HP ESU for Microsoft Windows 10
- HP Hotkey Support - support for extra "buttons" on your HP-provided keyboard
- HP JumpStart Bridge
- HP JumpStart Lauch
- HP Notifications - possibly useful to receive applicable Security Bulletins from HP
- HP Support Assistant - possibly useful for adding HP-specific device-drivers & BIOS updates to a "generic" installation of Windows
- HP Support Solutions Framewaaaork - required, if you use HP Support Assistant
- HP Sure Click
- HP Sure Recover
- HP Sure Run
- HP Velocity
- and much more
3. OK, if all you want is the "generic" Windows 10, without any of the HP-specific device-drivers.
It would have been helpful to download & install the HP Support Assistant, for the HP-specific device-drivers (not necessarily any "applications").
4. You needed that LAN driver (Intel I219 NIC Drivers for DTO Microsoft Win 10 -64bit sp88149) for your HP network adapter, because the "generic" Windows did not include that software.
5. after this Windows Update is starting to download and install 7 updates:
- Definition Update for Windows Defender Antivirus KB2267602 (definition 1.277.871.0)
- HP Development Company, L.P. - Keyboard - 7/11/2018 12:00:00 AM - 11.0.3.1

That "M.R.T." is part of Microsoft's monthly monitoring of what computer-viruses are commonly found on Windows 7/8/10 computers. Microsoft does publish a summary of what M.R.T. finds.
Unlike in earlier versions of Windows, updates to Adobe Flash Player are delivered through Windows Update, rather than being an "independent" update (like Apple iTunes is). This is part of "Windows as a service" philosophy, to (painlessly?) keep users' computers as up-to-date as possible.
6. It was unfortunate that you did not reboot after installing the device-driver for the network-adapter, before connecting through that adapter to the Internet, and before running Windows Update.
7. Sigh. Windows Update should have created a "checkpoint" (via System Restore) before making any changes. What happened when you tried to use System Restore to roll-back to that checkpoint?
thank you this realy helped to resolve my problem thank you again
