Hi @gurvisingh 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

I don't know if you can activate W7 Ultimate on your PC if it shipped with a W10 product key only.

 

If the PC also had a W7 Pro option at purchase you might be able to activate W7 Pro.

 

You might have to check eBay or elsewhere for a used W7 Ultimate DVD with a valid product key.

 

I would not use the internet when running W7.

 

Regards
