Hi,
I have USB Type C multi port hub ( which has 1 LAN, 2 HDMI, 1VGA, 1 SD Card Slot, 3 USB 3.0 ports on it). When I connect it with my laptop Type C port it is not able to turn on all the ports on it due to lack of power supply. It has an option of power delivery port. My laptop comes with standard Pin charger. So if I connect the standard charger to my laptop and supply power to my Type C USB HUB through its Power Delivery Port will it provide power to connect devices or can that damage my laptop as I am not if that power will be received my laptop as well?
Regards

HP X360 DH1008 is not a right specs, I can't work out the combination to get the right one therefore I us the following machine to answer your question because it should have same ports as its sisters like
HP Pavilion x360 - 14m-dh1003dx
which shows your machine has 1 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C™ (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate) port. 2 HDMI, 1VGA ports on your USB-C hub won't work, doesn't matter it has power or not.
You can connect power for your hub, USB-C port on your machine and USB-C port on your hub; they are not compatible anyway.
Regards.
