HP Pavilion Notebook
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So. due to some reasons i had to install an unactivated free version of windows 10 64-bit on my notebook.

 

I now wish to get back to the factory version of the earlier original windows 10 that came with my notebook using the recovery media I created using the hp recovery manager.

 

Now, I don't have HP recovery manager installed on my notebbok and the recovery manager option doesn't shows in the troubleshoot option. But i do have the recovery discs.

 

Can i continue the factory image reset of original windows 10 that came with the notebook by going through the boot options and booting through the Recovery dics I created earlier?

 

If not, what are the possible ways by which i can do so?

 

Thank You.

Put the first disk in the drive and shut down. After a brief wait- press the power button and immediately start tapping the Esc key. This will bring up a menu where F9 Boot options is a choice. Tap F9 and use the arrow keys to select/highlight CD/DVD. Tap Enter key.
