20.04 LTS is available from the Microsoft Store for use in the Linux Subsystem for Windows.  I recommend you use that and not attempt a dual boot or clean install of Linux.

 

You should obtain a cloud recovery image in case your dual boot or clean install goes bad.  Some drivers required for win10/11 are only in the cloud recovery.

 

HP is removing cloud recovery for system over 5 years old.
The actual wording is a limited time after the warranty expires
You may want to get a copy of the cloud recovery before it is too late.
Cloud recovery provides all the custom HP drivers.
Go to the below site and enter your product ID including the 3 characters after the # character
If you have cloud recovery you can restore your system using a 32gb flash.
It may take an hour or more to create the recovery USB.

Alternately, download from the MS windows store
