@TMirusso,

Welcome to the HP Forums!

Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the file explorer is opening automatically.

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details.

• When was the last time the computer was working fine?
• Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
• Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

While you respond to that, I recommend you follow the below steps and check whether the issue is resolved.

1. Press hold the Ctrl + Alt and Delete key on your keyboard to open task manager.
2. Click on Details, select explorer.exe and click End Task at the bottom-right of the screen.
3. Click File and click Run new task.
4. Type explorer.exe and click on OK.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
