    High RAM usage while idle


    Hello, I've got a problem with RAM, where after boot up it starts at around 20-30% usage, which is already high compared to what is shown to be used in task manager, but then ramps up to about 60-80% idle within an hour or two if not faster. I've done a clean boot, which then makes the usage at 7-8% so my guess it's a software issue and not a hardware issue. I have disabled the tips and tricks setting in notifications, did clean up my start up programs, did most of the things that i saw suggestions on doing with no avail. The only ones left are to check for viruseswhich I'll do tonight and

    :)

    High RAM usage while idle

    High idle ram usage 8gb using 60%

    "ram usage at idle is 60%"

    - Not a fix for your unknown RAM use (Greg's suggestions should help with that), and this only adds up to a bit under 1GB use but...

    A system is not at idle with around eight Chrome browser Windows and tabs open.

    Discord, and two active searches. Not to mention a system hogging 'Anti-malware' program.

    Desktop Window Manager is using more than usual as well.

    - It looks like you have a bit of DELL bloatware running too.

    - What is the RAM use straight after re-booting Windows ?
