Hi
KeyFinderInstaller may help....

Doing research, and none of the methods are mine, I have some, simple single lines of code that will list the same value for your Windows 10 Product Key…
Two for Windows 10 and one for Linux.

W10 Using cmd.exe as an Administrator (copy and paste accordingly).

wmic path softwarelicensingservice get OA3xOriginalProductKey >> c:\ProdKey.txt

Creates a text file called ProdKey.txt on your C:\ area.

Next is a PowerShell command, as Administrator...
(Get-WmiObject -query ‘select * from SoftwareLicensingService’).OA3xOriginalProductKey

but it will run within W10 using cmd.exe as an Administrator.
powershell (Get-WmiObject -query ‘select * from SoftwareLicensingService’).OA3xOriginalProductKey

Last, but not least....
Linux@Lubuntu:~$ sudo cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/MSDM | strings | tail -n 1

Create Windows 10 installation media

To get started, you will first need to have a license to install Windows 10. You can then download and run the media creation tool. For more information on how to use the tool, see the instructions below.

Thanks for your reply.

Previous installed Windows is not available with me.

In Dell if you purchase laptop with windows 10 then Dell provide one link to download and create USB bootable.

After Windos 10 installation Windows get activated automaticaly.

Hi

HP, et al, sell recovery kits, they also allow you to make your own...

HP Recovery Media Creation.pngHP Recovery Media Creation.

 

I provided 3 links, does that make me 3 times better then Dell?

W10 should re-activate automagically also on a HP or Acer or Asus.

 

So if you are pro-active then you can re-install W10 yourself.

 

ELSE

 

The First Part only works when a valid Recovery Partition is enabled.

 

If you get an error message, AND/OR have DATA you wish to try and save

(using the XCOPY command) then move onto the Second Part, to create

your own Repair/Recovery/Rebuild/Re-Install media or buy one from HP.

 

First Part:-

Turn off the computer.

 

Disconnect all connected devices and cables, Media Drives, USB drives, printers, & faxes.

Remove media from internal drives, and remove any recently added internal hardware.

Do not disconnect the monitor, keyboard, mouse, or power cord.

 

Turn on the computer and repeatedly press the F11 key, about once every second,

until the Choose an option screen is displayed, and then continue.

 

On the Choose an Option screen, click Troubleshoot, and work your way through the screens.

 

Second Part:-

This may require another PC. Find and Download your .iso from…

(You will need a NON_OEM key for W7;

W8.x and W10 should activate automagically from their embedded licence key.)

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows8ISO

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

For when it’s a NON MS OS ( iOS / Linux ) creating the install media.

www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO

 

This 3rd party site does not need a Licence Key to download…

heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/67-microsoft-windows-iso-download-tool

 

Expand/Extract/Burn the iso Image onto a DVD/USB as needed.

Microsoft’s Creator Tool will make the required DVD/USB.

 

Even though it has NO actual HP software/drivers included, you may be able to

XCOPY the C:\Users\* area onto a ‘large’ USB stick, via the Command Prompt.

 

You’ll need to try various drive letters; D:..-..Z: until it’s matched - could be G; mine’s S:

 

C:\>XCOPY C:\Users\* S:\ /e /i /h (then files like those 3 listed below get copied over)

 

C:\Users\desktop.ini

C:\Users\All Users\agent.1509128044.bdinstall.bin

C:\Users\All Users\HP Deskjet 2540 series\Help\flash\zoom.swf

 

Then you can try System Recovery / Advanced Options shown in the screenshots.

 

NB:- W7 Try running a Startup Repair more than once for a full fix.

NB: - W10 Begin with the Automatic Repair, then Startup Settings etc.

 

From either the C:\ or the X:\ prompt try the following

 

cd boot

bootrec /FixMBR

bootrec /FixBoot

bootrec /RebuildBCD

 

If the above FAILS then please try:-

If you have a USB, with a similar list of files to those below, you will have added the HP drivers from the above link to create a recovery media much the same as if you purchased it.
