"I’ve got this useless HP Stream device. It came with a ton of previously installed programs that it does not allow me to get rid of. I’m running out of memory and I only use a couple of programs. Device name DESKTOP-40M5RVH Processor AMD A4-9120e RADEON R3, 4 COMPUTE CORES 2C+2G 1.50 GHz Installed RAM 4.00 GB (3.86 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display"

No wonder you are running out of memory! 4Gb is about just enough for a 64 bit OS. Installed programs that it does not allow me to get rid of? Run a Linux live distro (use Rufus to install on a USB) and delete them. Later in Windows try running a registry cleaner.

I resolved most of my issues by purchasing a new computer for $100 from my room mate. He bought some black-friday google chrome for $150, didn’t like it and tried to sell it to another roommie for $100, who wasn’t interested. So now I have 2 computers. I can surf the net on the chromebox and do other stuff on the useless 4-processor HP box.
