Hello @JoeBuzu,

 

Welcome to the HP Forums!

 

I read your post about not being able to open applications from the desktop and wanted to reach out to you.

 

As this is an issue with your Acer laptop rather than an HP product, you will want to reach out to Acer support for this issue.

 

Thanks for being a part of the HP community.
