Windows 10: Apps are crashing and Task Manager points to low memory

It may or may not be related, but it started happening recently when I tried recovering some files I deleted.While "Windows File Recovery" was running in the background, the first crash occurred.I have on average about 10 tabs open in chrome. When it crashes, I have to open Task Manager to close it. And it sometimes states that "Your device is running low on memory".The same thing happens when other apps crash.I have 8 GB installed, and during the crashes, ~3 GB is available. So it can't be due to low memory. I remember things running fine even with 7 out of 8 GB occupied.All my drivers, and W

Memory Management Crash


Generally speaking, which is also this time the case, the 0x1A crash doesn't show a specific cause.
Causes are

• drivers
• memory
• vram
• hard drive

The dump doesn't point directly to anything, but based on the causes I've mentioned and a few things in the dump there is a chance the drives are involved in it.
