Product: Hp Ahlon Laptop

The dock icon has an orange outline on it for some reason, is there any way I can open Instagram app independent of the browser? The problem is that by opening Instagram in the browser I am unable to upload photos. I need to find a way to open the app by itself. Thanks for any help.

It is NOT a product from HP. My understanding is it MUST run under a browser. My suggestion: change browser or try

If you are using the Instagram on your PC I don't know if there is another way to open it besides the browser and unfortunately you can not upload photos. Maybe there are some tricks about it, but I don't know them. Usually, I upload photos and videos only from the Instagram app on my phone. For me, it seems to be easier to use Instagram on the phone than on the PC. However, when I made my Instagram account I used it mostly from the PC because I wasn't very active, I just followed what the others posted. But, since I began to use the instagram services with autolikes , I post mostly every day something. So, I use only the Instagram app on the phone, because it's much easier.
