Hi:

 

The product specs for your notebook indicate that it came with W8.1 from HP, so the recovery media would install W8.1.

You can then upgrade back to W10 for free by clicking on the blue Update Now button at the link below.

If you are asked to enter a product key during the upgrade process, select the 'I don't have a product key' option and W10 will install and automatically activate once you are connected to the internet.
