I need steps to activate Windows 10 on my new computer that was suppose to have Windows 10 already installed.

According to the HP specs for your model, it should have come with Windows 10 S mode.  

 

The activation key is embedded into the firmware of the motherboard, but the problem with S Mode is that you can not install and run anything that is not on the Windows Store, so we can not provide a working utility to find your product key.

 

If it is indeed NOT activated, then you should return it to HP and demand a replacement.
