Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
If the HP Smart application is currently installed in Settings > Apps > Installed Apps
Consider
Check / Run Windows Updates > Install any pending updates
Next,
>>> Restart everything, including the router that controls your network. <<<
Open and Check HP Smart
If the HP Smart opens but does not work or hangs partly open > Close the HP Smart App.
If you cannot stop HP Smart, Restart the computer and log in > Do not restart HP Smart yet.
