HP Pavilion 11-n022nx x360 PC (ENERGY STAR)
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

During reinstallation of windows 10, my hp laptop was not started. I created recovery usb drive from another lenovo laptop with windows 8 operating system. It deleted my hp recovery folder and everything from my hard drive. Now I can open my laptop with windows 8 and with Lenovo set up. How can I recover hp set up and windows 10 which was installed when I bought the laptop, My model no 11-n022nx

The notebook came with Windows 8.1 from HP:

There is no place that I know of where you can purchase a HP W8.1 recovery kit anymore.

 

Your only option to reinstall Windows 10 would be to make a bootable USB W10 installation flash drive with the media creation tool from the link below.

 

Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

 

Boot from the installation media and when you are asked what version of W10 you want to install select W10 Home.

 

Then you will be asked to enter a product key.

 

Select the 'I don't have a product key' option and W10 activate after you are connected to the internet.

 

When you get to the part that asks 'Where do you want to install Windows, delete every partition on the hard drive, leaving just one partition of unallocated space.  Click Next, and W10 will install.

 

After W10 has completed installing, you can install the drivers and available software from your notebook's support page:
