You can download the latest version from here.

I recommend installing HP support assistant which will help keep your drivers up to date and much more. You might need to reboot a couple of times.

You can follow this process by going into settings > Security and update > click on Verify for updates. When finished installing allow Windows to completely update and find all or most drivers. Once it boots from pendrive follow the procedure to install Windows. Press the power button and immediately keep pressing ESC until the startup menu appears and then press F9 and choose the pendrive in the boot menu. If not, turn off the PC by holding the power button. So, insert the pendrive in the PC and it should boot directly from the drive. You might need to disable fastboot and secure boot in BIOS (probably not). If you choose this option you will need to use the pendrive to perform a clean install of Windows 10. Windows will automatically activate once installed and connected to the Internet. Create the drive with Windows 10 Home 64-bit edition. (there is an explanation on the Microsoft web page on how to create the pendrive). It is reallly quite fast and then you can use the SATA to USB adapter to transfer your files onto the SSD.ĭownload media creation tool from Microsoft on PC (before replacing drive), run and create a bootable pendrive with the OS on it. Well, I would go with a clean install, as most likely you do not have the latest version of Windows on the machine and eventually you would need to update anyway.
