Windows 10: How do I fix random lag spikes on HP Windows 11 laptop?

Been having this issue ever since I bought it in January this year. It's a laptop I use for school, and it has lag spikes every 5-10 seconds affecting the whole experience using the laptop, especially the mousepad which freezes constantly making the laptop hard to use. It does this even when there's no browser or application running. Tried using a different mouse, still had the same issue.I've tried shutting down and restarting, updating mouse drivers,all sorts, and the issue has not been fixed.So, how do I fix this?

Random lag spikes

Hi,

We would like to know more about your lag issue:

• What browser are you using when you experience a lag?
• Does the lag occur in a particular game?

In the meantime, we suggest you run the System Maintenance troubleshooter. Here are the steps:

• Press Windows Key + X.
• Click on Control Panel.
• Select Troubleshooting.
• On the left pane, click on View All.
• Click on System Maintenance to run the troubleshooter.

Looking forward to your response.
