I recently got my laptop fixed from a local retailer and he installed a pirated windows 11 in my laptop even though I had genuine windows and now I'm trying to activate my default windows using my product key which came when I purchased the laptop but it shows error saying that product key is not working and try using another product key.
Should I install windows 10 using bootable USB or is there any other option to do so.

That model is supported by the HP Cloud Recovery tool

You will need to download the software and reload a legal version of Windows 10 or Windows 11 using that tool and reload(reinstall). No reason to be using a pirated version.
