Welcome to the HP Community.

 

I am sorry this happened to you.

 

The simple answer

 

"After the fact" is too late to purchase and install the software that supports tracking, locking, or wiping the contents of your computer.

 

 

HP does not track lost or stolen computers or other HP devices.

 

 

The longer answer

 

"IF you prepared ahead of time"...

 

If you switched on Windows Find my Device

Microsoft Support – Find and lock a Windows Device

 

 

If you had purchased and installed PC tracking / locking software,

Contact the company that provided the software.

 

For Example,

Optional Coverage – Track and Lock

 

Absolute Protection provides several services, including Delete, Locate, Recover

 

Search for "Absolute" or  "Absolute Home & Office"
