Hi:

 

HP hasn't included any installation DVD's with their notebooks in years.

 

If your notebook was made in 2016 or later, you can, with another working Windows PC and a 32 GB USB flash drive, make a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your PC, using the HP Cloud recovery tool.

 

Here is an info link for how to use that utility.

If your notebook is not supported by the cloud recovery tool, you can reinstall W10 for free by making bootable installation media using the media creation tool at the link below.

 

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

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

 

To install Net Framework 3.5 on W10...go to the Windows control panel>programs>Turn Windows features on or off>let the list populate, and the first item at the top should be Net Framework 3.5.  Check the box, and Net Framework 3.5 will install.
