I know that it is not precisely what you want but it is a start. You could use a Windows computer to create a bootable USB key on a different computer and then use the bootable USB key on your HP laptop.

I think it's mentioned on the link to the update that I supplied.

You can always run Win10 temporarily under VirtualBox just to make the

and it doesn't need to be activated just to extract the files.
