That Windows 7 Home Premium was upgraded to version 10. The HP Windows 7 had a maximum of 16GB of memory.

Would a fresh installation fix the issue? Or should we update the version?

Windows 10 has a larger capacity than what you're thinking, but I wondered if the upgrade was problematic.

even if possible, the restriction won't carry over to Win10. The home version has a 128GB limit. A reinstall won't fix it. Suggest the user check their memory slots with a cleaner. This issue often stems from poor contact quality (based on my experience). Also, the Ryzen 2600 model doesn't support 3600 memory. Maximum around 2999MHz, and even less if all slots are occupied.
