I have Windows 10 Home, I'm a newbie so not sure how to handle this.

 

Please help

Thanks for reading

Hi @Gosia83,

 

Welcome to the HP Forums! 

 

I noticed your post that your Notebook is freezing when you right click. I am happy to look into this for you! 

 

What is the product/model number of your Notebook? How Do I Find My Model Number, Serial Number or Product Number? Example: HP Pavilion 17. 

 

For now, perhaps the steps in this post will help. It is for Windows 8, but the instructions will work on Windows 10. 

 

If this helps, please consider clicking on 'accept as solution.' And, please click on the thumbs up icon. Both icons are below this post.

 

Hope to hear from you soon! 🙂
