Hello, I bought my x360 as a refurb at a Microcenter in the US (Detroit) when I was there in the summer of 2017. I live in The Netherlands and the warranty has already expired anyway. Here's my question. The touchscreen keeps disabling, and I am fed up of having to do the trick in the device manager to disable and enable the I2C HID device, which is what gets an exclamation mark and prevents the touchscreen from working, this happened after I clean installed a valid Windows 10 Pro key on it two years ago so I no longer have the original recovery in a partition. I can't select my European address to ship the $40 recovery USB so I figured I would see if HP recovery manager works, but I am reading that it creates a recovery of the existing system, is this true?
I want to know if the USB recovery drive I created with the HP recovery manager has set the original Windows 10 Home + proper drivers, or if it is simply snapshotting my own clean install with the buggy touchscreen enabling and disabling.
I would go to Windows 10 Home and HP vanilla OOBE if it fixes the touchscreen!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi:
You can use the HP Cloud Recovery Client utility to create a bootable recovery drive.
This will set the hard drive to its original configuration when you bought the notebook.
Here is an info link for how to use the tool.

You're very welcome.
The utility is listed on the base model's W10 driver page.
