You need a different laptop. That is pretty much at the bottom of the modern day performance heap. Sorry.
That's unfortunate, would you have any recommendations to run league of legends smoothly at around the same price point? or a laptop with 8gb ram, an ssd, and a dedicated graphics card under $800 cad? thank you, much appreciated

While it is not the greatest laptop, I don't think it should be taking that long to do things like opening a browser. Its probably not going to work great in games though, as you have experienced.

Have you tried to just "Reset This PC" back to factory settings? It is possible something has gone buggy.
