I understand.  The regular Windows 11 install will work just fine, except the "other HP add-ons" will not be there. 

Was there something that was really working for you that was, in particular nice, that you wanted the HP Add-ons?

FYI: most users try to eliminate the "bloatware", so I am curious as to which feature you liked?

I just found the original HP install was more stable overall, especially Gaming Hub which tends to crash occasionally on my basic install. Also, when I installed the basic install some drivers weren’t installing because of administrative privilege's (even though my account is listed as admin) and me having to create a separate admin account through command line just to be able to install these drivers and others going forward, didn’t have that with HP install.

Also, liked that all the partitions etc for things like recovery  were all correct and in place.

Understand.  There is a support place you can go to make sure the drivers are all installed.
