Hi @Ramith,
Thank you for your response. What is your product number or model number? HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Model Number, Serial Number or Product Number? I would like some clarifications. Did you upgrade to Windows 10 from a previous operating system? If so what was it? If you were previously running a different version of Windows are you trying to return to it? If you wish to retain Windows 10, I suggest you do a clean install. How to Clean Install Windows 10 (from tenforums.com)

Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I have read your post and wanted to help. I understand that you need to recover your laptop.
You can recover the laptop to the factory settings:

Remember to back up your personal files before the recovery.
Let me know how it goes.
