Hi @Karen79 ,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd like to help!

To drag an image into Adobe Photoshop on an HP laptop running Windows (such as your HP 15.6-inch laptop PC 15-e), you can follow these steps:

Open Adobe Photoshop:

• If you haven't already, launch Adobe Photoshop on your HP laptop. You can usually find it in your list of installed applications or by searching for "Photoshop" in the Windows search bar.

Open the Image:

• If you have an image file that you want to drag into Photoshop, locate the image file on your computer using Windows File Explorer. You can typically find your image in the "Pictures" folder or wherever you have it saved.

Arrange Windows:

• Make sure you have both Adobe Photoshop and the File Explorer window with your image open and visible on your desktop. You can arrange these windows side by side for easier drag-and-drop.

Click and Drag:

• Click on the image file you want to open in Photoshop using your mouse or touchpad.
• While holding down the mouse button, drag the image file over the Adobe Photoshop window. As you hover over the Photoshop window, you should see the Photoshop window become active (highlighted).
• Release the mouse button to drop the image into Photoshop.

Edit the Image:

• Once you've dropped the image into Photoshop, it will open in a new document tab. You can then edit, manipulate, and work with the image as needed.

By following these steps, you should be able to easily drag and drop an image from your HP laptop's file system into Adobe Photoshop for editing. If you encounter any issues, make sure both the Photoshop application and the image file are active and visible on your desktop, and that you are using the drag-and-drop method correctly.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
