Thank you for your detailed explanations. I understand better.

I found the version
<a href="http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRAPHICS-BOARD/Leshcat/Leshcat-AMD-UnifL-Catalyst-Graphics-Driver-157-v12-64-bit.shtml">http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRAPHICS-BOARD/Leshcat/Leshcat-AMD-UnifL-Catalyst-Graphics-Driver-157-v12-64-bit.shtml</a>
in a folder dating from The time when I had tried Windows 10; This version had
been advised by an HP technician. So I installed it today. I feel that
everything is functional.
Thank you for your help!
Beautiful summer to you.
