I have bought this laptop about a month ago and from the very start cooling fan is working all the time and it's driving me c-r-a-z-y. Please give me some advice how to silence it.
Tnx

You can use the HP CoolSense software on your notebook to adjust your fan settings.
For example: You can change the setting from 'Coolest' or 'Performance Optimized' too 'Quietest'.
But if set on 'Quietest' it might run hot, so be careful.
If your computer does not have HP CoolSense alreay installed then you still may be able to install it if your notebook meets the hardware requirements.
Here's the info: HP CoolSense Technology

Yes, but speed fan can't detect the fan. I've also updated the BIOS and disabled fan always on option, but no method is working. I'm afraid googling out doesn't help since I can find the solution a month long

You can try changing the Power Options in Control Panel.
For example: from 'High Performance' to 'Power Saver' mode.
It's also possible that your fan is always running because the system is running hot.
Have you tried monitoring your system temps? You can try Real Temp to monitor temps to see if it's running hot. You can use a can of compressed air to blow out the intake/exhaust vents of dust that may be clogging the vents and not use the laptop on a soft surface; pillow, blanket, etc., that might block the intake/exhaust vents.

I've tried that as well, but power settings don't change anything. I've also monitored the temperatures with HWmonitor and all is fine. I'm aware that HP made this system to maintiain everything cool and longlasting, but is annoying
