Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello! My HP 15 laptop has been having issues lately. It's been "overheating" due to a cooling fan malfunction.  But...for some reason, it doesn't overheat when it's on the charger. I believe the overheating started in February, but I might be wrong. I have had the laptop for a 1 and a half years. Any help would be much appreciated!

To start, make sure the notebook is plugged directly into a wall outlet and not a surge protector. Once done, this document outlines how to troubleshoot fan and overheating issues on your notebook.

Alright, I think I know what the problem is now. I think the fan is clogged up, because it's being really quiet.  So thank you for helping me with this. Thank you so much!
