What is your HP Stream Laptop 11-ah0XX ? Normally Windows 10 will activate itself automatically using a key which is embedded in BIOS. The key is in the BIOS of your machine, please use the following tool to get it:

When run this tool, it produces a report, scroll down to Software Management section. Windows 8, 8.1 or 10 product key is in there.
