Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details and I would appreciate if you could, perhaps elaborate on your concern.
- What is the product number of your computer?
- What files did you delete?
- What is the exact issue you are facing?
- Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?
Look forward to hearing from you and you have a great day!
Take care.
Cheers!

Can you share a screenshot of the error you are getting?
Meanwhile, I recommend you perform a system restore back to the date when the computer was working fine.
Refer to the below article for detailed steps.
