Hi @Gorgiooo 

 

Look in "Settings", "Accounts".

 

What type of account do you have?

 

I set up Windows using a Local Admin account.

 

System Restore is probably off. Check this Site for steps to enable this option for future reference.

 

Your PC may have a HP Cloud Recovery option if it is fairly new or you could do a clean W11 install using Microsoft's USB Media Creation Tool available at this Site.

 

W10 may only be offered as a Cloud Recovery option if your PC shipped from the factory with W10.

 

Regards
