Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
I have noticed that HPCommRecovery.exe shows up an awful lot in Events viewer so curiosity made me do some research. Please can anyone explain what it does as I've read various opinions and some say it should be uninstalled as it is not necessary. This laptop came preinstalled with Windows 11 and I have a feeling this .exe may belong to a former OS.
Thank you
