I am reaching out regarding my HP Victus 15 laptop I have attempted to use the HP Cloud Recovery Tool to create a recovery USB drive, but it fails consistently with the error: "Error: 0xC0D0405 – The recovery media creation attempt has failed." I have tried this process multiple times on different systems, with different USB drives and internet connections. I believe there may be an issue with the recovery image for this device model on your servers. My warranty has expired, but I would still appreciate it if you could help me by: - Providing a direct download link for the official recovery ISO file for my device, OR - Letting me know how I can request the recovery media for my specific laptop model. Thank you very much for your time and assistance.
