Product: HP Pavilion 15au114tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So , I decided to reinstall my windows 10 but unfortunately my recovery drive somehow deleted, so what I did I downloaded the win 10 from Microsoft site, flashed it in the USB drive and reinstalled the windows.

 

Now, my question is when I first purchased the laptop , with windows I got several HP software's with it preinstalled Like cool sense, 3d drive guard etc.. So those apps are necessary or I am good without them. 

 

Also I have installed a SSD in place of my DVD drive and windows is in it.

Hi:

 

W10 probably automatically installed the 3D driveguard driver if you don't see any missing devices in the device manager.

 

I recommend you install the newer HP command center app, which has a 'coolsense' feature as part of the software.

 

Get HP Command Center - Microsoft Store
