Welcome to the HP Community --
True - The HP Pen Control app was removed from the Microsoft Store a while back.

Update / Edits
Our HP Community Moderator team admins worked to make this happen --
At least for now, we have a solution in place to make it possible to have the HP Pen Control.
NOTE
If the instructions (or the example) don't make sense, blame the Dragon -- this is a first pass How-to
True - this HP Pen Control might be an older version -- it is what could be done.
=======================================
HP Pen Control – Executable / App
Download / Save / Install the package
or
Download and execute / run in browser.
https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp82001-82500/sp82491.exe
The "install" is fast and quickly gone from the screen.
There is no wrapper, for example, there is no window to ask the user to add the installed program to the Desktop (make a shortcut).
That said, all the parts are there.
Open the installed software folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\ELAN\HP Pen Control
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
ControlAP.exe
Double-click opens the app right on the display.
HP Pen Control.exe
Double-Click opens the app in the Taskbar (then click and open to the display)
Right-Click opens the menus > Pin to Start > More options > Pin to taskbar / send to desktop (shortcut).
