My computer has been overheating lately, and it reaches crazy temperatures. I checked the fan and it works fine and i run it in cooler boost( max setting) and it does not help. When I looked online some people say that i need to reapply some thermal paste. I do not have any experience working on laptops. How can I really identify the problem and how can I apply thermal paste?

@amaceylenmek you could use an infrared thermometer and see where it overheats. Overheating is always a pain. I would definitely consider replacing the fan and most certainly replacing the thermal paste. Also, make sure the the air inlet/outlet slots on your case are clean (unobstructed)
Since iFixit does not yet have a guide for this, use something like this video to work on it. Here is a guide MSI GS66 Stealth 11UE-007 CPU Thermal Paste Replacement for a different MSI laptop. The idea is the same, just getting to it is different. For that, refer to the above linked video.
While you work on your laptop, take lots of pictures. Once you are done with it, take those pictures and create a guide for iFixit. That will help the next person that has a device with the same issues as you do. It's easy and fun to create these guides. https://ifixit.com/Guide/new The iFixit community will appreciate this.
