Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

I'll be glad to help you 🙂 

 

As I understand you need the original recovery for windows 10,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

Have you attempted to tap on the F11 key to access the recovery manager & reinstall the OS?

 

If you have and it didn't go through, I recommend using the recovery media, if you didn't create one shortly after purchasing the PC,

you can always order one online: Click here for details.

 

Keep me posted,

If the information I've provided was helpful, 

give us some reinforcement by clicking the solution and kudos buttons, 

that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

Good Luck.

Thank you for responding,

It's great to have you back 😉

 

Technically, you need to contact HP from the region you purchased your PC, as the global support for you device is to troubleshoot and resolve,

However, for repair/replacement/software shipment you need to contact the region of purchase.

 

The only other option is, to Contact HP and ask if they have an option to provide a download link for the recovery media,

So that you can download it from the region you are in, now.

 

Let me know how that goes,

If the information I've provided was helpful,

that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

Good Luck.

@Hus1979

Thank you for responding,

I Appreciate the clarification.

 

As I was under the impression that you moved into Saudi,

Whereas, you've recently mentioned that you've moved out of Saudi.

 

That said, perhaps, you could mentioned where exactly you are now, so that I can help you accordingly,

Please send the information of your current location on a private message.

 

Awaiting your response,

Keep me posted and have a good day.

Thank you for responding,

I would never give up nor would suggest you to do that,

And as for resolving your concern, I recommend you contact HP using the below steps:

 

HP Support can be reached by clicking on the following link: http://h22207.www2.hp.com/us-en/?openCLC=true

 

(1) Once the support page opens please select the country in which you're located. Next, enter your HP model number on the right.

(2) Next, choose the 'Contact Support' tab at the top and scroll down to the bottom of the 'HP Support- Contact' page to fill out the form provided with your contact information.

(3) Once completed click the 'Show Options' icon on the bottom right.

(4) Lastly, scroll down to the bottom of the page and select 'Get the phone number.' A case number and phone number will now populate for you.

 

They should be able to help you with the recovery media download link,

That said, if they don't have any such options, you can always get a retail copy of windows and install that instead, HP doesn't support or recommend it, however, you could take the final call as the owner of the PC.

 

If the issue is related to the drivers alone, I recommend checking websites such as www.hp.com/drivers (HP's official website) or driverscape.com (a third party website that contains most of the drivers once you select HP in it).

 

I've mentioned these details so that you don't have to give up and so that the information serves your best interests.

 

Keep me posted if you need any other technical assistance,

If the information I've provided was helpful, 

give us some reinforcement by clicking the solution and kudos buttons, 

that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

Good Luck.
