  1. how to suspend EXE/program so that its uses less memory/RAM without having to close it?


    Ive a 2nd virtual desktop for certain tasks but I don’t use it often, so Im wondering if theres a way to suspend a program so that it uses less less memory/RAM and then when I click on the program window it wakes up again? Id rather not have to close and open the program each time I start/stop using it – the program in question is Vivaldi browser, ive multiple windows with about 10 tabs in each window that I sometimes use for tasks

  2. why does the file explorer closes everytime a folder with exe programs is opened. an error

    Hi

    Thanks for your help.

    Unfortunately it did not work.

    The MS support walked thru similar steps, we even reinstalled, deleted the folder but with no resolution.

    It is strange because this happens specifically on folders that have .exe programs. I can access other folders.

    The programs within the directory are listed and about 20 seconds later it closes.

    regards

    Dorian

    How can I recover RAM without closing these basic programs?

    <Original title: Programs closing for lack of memory>

    I continually get the message to close program to recover memory, yet I have 6 GB Ram and only keep email and browser active, both of which crash as a result. How can I recover RAM without closing these basic programs?

  4. how to suspend EXE/program so that its uses less memory/RAM without having to close it?

    REGSVR32.exe error message saying can't use memory location 0x00------014

    Hi,

    As per the description, I understand that the Internet Explorer closes immediately after opening and you receive
    rvgsvr32.exe error. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to run Internet Explorer performance troubleshooter and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    1. Type troubleshooting in the search bar.

    2. Select Troubleshooting.

    3. Select View all on the top left corner.

    4. Click Internet Explorer
    performance
    .

    5. Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.

    6. Check if issue persists.

    Also, I suggest you to check if the computer is using its full memory.

    • Press Windows key + R and type msconfig.
    • Go to Advance options and check if you have chosen use Maximum memory.
    • If not, I suggest you to place a check mark, restart the computer and check if that helps.
    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
