HP Laptop 17-by0xxx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I started a system recovery media creation and stopped because I wanted to use USB instead of DVD but now cannot make it because it wants me to make DVDs now.

Does that create the HP restoration or just the Microsoft? I find it strange that HP needs 4 DVDs and MS only needs one. Perhaps I didn't explain my issue clearly enough.

 

I want to be able to restore this computer after I have this current hard drive replaced with all the HP software included. Your link does not provide the solution. I started the recovery media creation process using the HP Recovery Manager app and after making one of the four DVDs, I've decided use the USB option instead, but I cannot go back to that option.

Can I please get an answer since I am waiting to install a new hard drive
