[SOLVED] Used F3 recovery mode by accident

I have an HP laptop that a family member pressed F3 by accident then proceeded to hit a series of other keys to stop the recovery mode process. Now when we try to turn the laptop on we get a message that it doesn't recognize or find the Windows operating system.

Any words of advice?

Thanks -

Turn on laptop. On the first screen start pressing F2, this should restore the laptop to factory conditions. Just follow on screen prompts.

Note: you should see at the bottom left corner, tow options F2 and F11. Those options/screen doesn't last long.

Your advice worked!

Glad you got it working.
