Hi
Make Backups and Recovery Media immediately.
From 2016 onwards there is a possible recovery option via the cloud...
HP Consumer PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool (Windows 7 & 10)

OR
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
Microsoft’s Creator Tool will make the required DVD or USB.
