Hi:

 

You can reinstall W10 for free by making bootable installation media using the Media creation tool at the link below.

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

If you had previously upgraded the PC from an older Windows OS, when you get to the part that asks for you to enter a product key, select the 'I don't have a product key' option, and W10 will install and automatically activate once you are connected to the internet.
