Probably not. In many cases big box pw supplies ie dell, hp, whatever have proprietary connections. AND the fact that the pw supply in question only has 15amp on the 12V rail.

You have to check the connections. You are not thinking about trying to put a standard motherboard into a hp case are you? If so, that almost always fails and or causes problems.
You are spending well over $200.00 on parts and you want to use a very low end pw supply???? That makes no sense to me. Same thing as buying a new car and putting in reclaimed oil; again makes no sense.

If it fits in the hp case then why not ? Or am I missing something ? Also my motherboard fried up so ordered the Motherboard and core. Should I also order psu or before ordering check psu if it works and then order?

You need to understand something. Big box stuff ie hp, dell, whatever is proprietary. Cases, motherboards, etc are mfg to their specs and NOT industry standard specs. When you attempt to use a standard motherboard in a dell or hp case, pci-e slots often do not line up, case leads will not work, etc, etc.

Since you are replacing an OEM type motherboard, you do understand you need a new copy of windows. You cannot use the OEM copy that is on your hard drive. OEM type lic live and die with the original hardware; you change the motherboard and you need a new copy of windows.

I understand that. I'd need a new case. Windows also I get it I'd need new. I'll use crack one tho. However psu was just wondering maybe if it can work then why not. Wht is difference from standard psu and hp psu ? Or should I simply buy new psu. And are all psu (industry one)compatible with any motherboards?

I think you've received enough advise on the power supply to make an informed decision and since we don't support pirated software we won't assist any further. If you need help when it's assembled then we would have to verify if the license is genuine or not before proceeding.

Hi I'm attaching two pics below one is of the motherboard (asrock h410m-hdv) and then I've got hp (OEM) power supply. Will it work or fry or underperform.
my gpu gtx 1050 (2gb)
Ram 1 Ddr4
1 hdd (1tb)
1 ssd (sata 120gb)
Intel i5-10400
I am asking this because I think the motherboard will fit in the hp case as well as it's dimensions are similar. I have no prob in buying new psu but they all seems Cheap even evga and I'm little scared it might fry my new mb.

Using a hp pw supply with a 1050 card is just asking for a problem. Your pw supply puts out all of 15amp on the 12V rail.
Get a quality pw supply.

I use corsair or seasonic pw supplies in builds. This is just an example of a decent pw supply;
https://www.newegg.com/seasonic-focus-sgx-ssr-500sgx-500w/p/N82E16817151230?&quicklink=true
Right now pw supplies are pretty pricey due to shortages in the supply chain.
You are free to use whatever you would like. The above is what I would use [or something of similar quality]
