@bellaluna, welcome to the forum.

 

It is my understanding that the only receiver that works is the one that comes with the mouse and keyboard.  Therefore, I don't believe that you will be able to get a new receiver.  With that said, you can check HP Partsurfer to see if it shows any possibilities.

 

I lost the receiver to one of my Microsoft mice and it is now useless.  They don't sell the receivers separately.
