    Retaining Win 10 Licence across a format.


    Hi,My daughters laptop disk has crashed and is now seen as a "Raw" disk.I have removed it and connected it my laptop and managed to copy off most data.As I understand it, the only way to fix this issue is with a reformat. However after that, I don't have any installation disks nor do I have the licence key.Any suggestions as to how I get round this conundrum ?The drive is a 1TB SATA drive from an HP Envy laptop.Thanks, Graham.

    :)
