That computer, unfortunately, is horribly underpowered and does not meet the requirements to install or run InDesign. The number that stands out is the 4GB or RAM. Eight is the very bare minimum. The i3 is also a low-end processor and is only a 6th generation chip. If I had to guess, I'd say that machine is from 6-8 years ago.

 

You may also need to upgrade the operating system and at this point, you're best course of action is to buy a new one.

You might update your OS to the latest Version of WIN 10.
