I'm very surprised that the cloud recovery tool is not supported for your notebook.

 

It should have been, but I tried twice entering the product number and got a 'Not Available' message from the HP cloud recovery tool website.

 

That leaves you with two options:

 

If you want the original HP factory image, you can purchase a recovery kit from this vendor:

 

Computer Surgeons - Windows 10 Home - 64 Recovery Kit Part Number L04668-002 For ENVY Notebook Model...

 

Your other option would be to reinstall W10 for free by making a bootable USB installation flash drive with the Microsoft media creation tool from the link below:

 

Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

 

After W10 has completed installing, you can install the drivers and available software from your notebook's support page:
