Your laptop should have a hidden partition that contains the OS recovery data. What you want is the app to create a media recovery disk. The app should be in the HP folder.

Hi Luna,

Thanks for the reply. I wasn't so much interested in the "windows"
side of things. But, rather anyone had managed to have windows, use
the tool, then install linux/fedora, and reinstall windows as a test.

This is why I posted here... for the fedora to windows reinstall portion..

thanks!
