    Hi,
    1.How did you manage to extend the drive capacity?
    2.Is there any other behaviors more than the icons not clickable? Like whether you could use the taskbar or search in the start menu?
    3.Please use "Ctrl+Alt+Delete" to open the task manager and check the performance usage and kill high usage process as a test.

    Hope this helps and please help to accept as Answer if the response is useful.

    Thanks,
    Jenny

    Sounds like something is consuming all the resources. Task Manager\Processes may reveal something.
