    How to reduce memory usage in window 10?

    Hi Yirga,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. I understand your concern and I am glad to assist you.

    Please follow the steps and check if memory usage can be reduced.

    • Press and hold the “Windows” button and the “R” button.
    • In the run window you will need to write the following: “dfrgui” without the quotes.
    • Press the “Enter” button on the keyboard.
    • In the new window that shows you will need to left click or tap on the hard drives you want to defragment.
    • After you have selected the hard drives you will need to left click or tap on the “Optimize” button and follow the instructions on the screen to finish the defragment process.
    • After the defragmentation is completed reboot your Windows 10 device and try to see if it improved your RAM usage.
    Hope this post helps. Get back to us for further queries. We are happy to help!

    How to reduce the RAM and bandwidth usage of Chrome browser

    Thanks for the solutions you have provided.

    I have performed some troubleshooting steps to reduce RAM usage and so it has worked fine.

    I have also used a feature called " efficiency mode" , that helps to reduce the memory usage and bandwidth usage of a specific tab in chrome.

    Since I have 3300 tabs opened in chrome at this moment , the browser and my laptop r not lagging at all .

    How to reduce MsMpNg memory usage

    Runaway memory usage

    On your suggestion I went to uninstall AVG. It offered to go into an on-demand mode (I can't remember the word it used to describe).
    So I tried that instead of uninstalling. Upon reboot everything seemed unchanged. High CPU usage, memory growth, no good.

    So I ran the uninstall. This moved along step by step ... until the last step (titled: replacing files) never completed. It left behind a bunch of its stuff in Program Files:
    Code:
    So I have a bunch of leftover crap ... which I'll probably just delete.

    Anyway, after rebooting it seems that all is well. CPU usage is near zero. The fans are quiet. (Computer fans, not football fans!) *chuckle

    Thanks for the quick reply.
