Hi @stormie5,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
If your HP laptop is stuck on "Restoration Incomplete," you can try the following steps:
Force Restart: Press and hold the power button until the laptop turns off. Wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
Boot into Safe Mode:
- Turn off the laptop.
- Turn it on and repeatedly press the F11 key (or Esc followed by F11).
- Select Troubleshoot, then Advanced options, and choose Startup Settings. Select Safe Mode.
System Restore:
- If you can access the recovery options, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > System Restore. Follow the prompts to restore to a previous state.
Repair Startup:
- In the recovery menu, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Repair. This may fix the issue automatically.
Reset PC:
- If other options fail, you may need to reset the PC. Select Troubleshoot > Reset this PC and follow the prompts. You can choose to keep your files or remove everything.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
