My laptop got a virus and was wiped and I don’t know what to do to fix it or even where to start. I’m new at learning how to do stuff with them. Please help.

Hi:

 

Your notebook is supported by the HP cloud recovery tool which you can use on another PC running W7 64 bit or newer, and a 32 GB USB flash drive that will create a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your notebook.

 

Here is an info link for how to use the utility:

 

HP Consumer PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool in Windows 11 and 10 | HP® Customer Support

 

You can obtain the cloud recovery tool software from the Microsoft Store at the link below:

 

HP Cloud Recovery Tool - Microsoft Store Apps

 

Since you have to use another PC, after you install the tool, you will need to enter your PC's product number in the tool's search window to create the recovery media.

 

Your notebook's product number is: X7S47UA#ABA
