Hi,
in Europe you deinstall Windows and ASK for a refund. One Person even
die take it to a court and won.

If you already have it, the license was already paid by HP.
If your point is simply to not *accept* the license on loading up
the
computer, that's easy. You can get a GNU/Linux install live USB and
boot
off of that directly and erase Windows so it will never even run the
first time.
Someone else may know more than me on this, but I do vaguely recall
that
there's possibly some way to demand a refund from Microsoft when you
prove that you never used or accepted the Windows license. I'd
clarify
that right away. But if it may not be possible or practical.

Hi,
I got a new HP laptop and still did notl open it- Any idea how to
