Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have USB Recovery Media and I guess it won't work any more once windows 11 is rolled out. Does anyone know if the W10 recovery media is exchangeable for W11 media?

Hi:

 

Your recovery media will reinstall W10, and HP would not be releasing W11 recovery media for any PC unless the notebook came from HP with W11.

Thanks, that's what I thought.

 

Do you think I might get a discount if I return the W10 recovery media? I mean, it's worth a try, right?

You're very welcome.

 

You have absolutely nothing to lose by asking, I suppose.
