Hi:
Use the HP cloud recovery tool on another Windows PC and make a bootable USB recovery drive to reinstall the original HP factory software image on the drive.
Here is an info link for how to use the software:
HP Consumer PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool in Windows | HP® Support
Since you have to use the software on another PC, you will need to enter your PC's product number in the tool's search window in order to proceed to make the recovery media.
Your PC's product number is 192L0UA#ABA
