    Brand new Windows 10 Laptop has no memory?


    Hi, I got a brand new Windows 10 laptop back in February. From the very beginning, I've had error messages about low memory, and haven't been able to open more than 3 internet tabs at a time. Some websites like Google Maps don't work at all because of low memory. The internet browser keeps crashing. I've got very, very few files saved on the computer, because I mostly use it for the internet.


    It's telling me I have 11GB free of 28GB, and back in March I tried clearing the memory, but there's very little I'm actually able to clear. I don't know how to fix it, but it's very frustrating. Thanks.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. Out of memory? Brand new laptop, windows 10

    I started using my brand new laptop on Christmas Eve. It runs Windows 10, has a 250GB SSD (or around that mark) and I cannot remember how much RAM it has. After two days of using it, I have had an error message telling me that I am almost out of memory?
    I just don't understand this? I'm still figuring out windows 10 and it's a laptop for school work so the only thing it has been used for is watching Netflix.

    Does anyone know why this is happening? I have so much memory left so it's definitely some sort of error.

    Do I need to take my laptop back?

    I have seen other questions similar to mine but there was nothing helpful and they are all from over a year ago so I was hoping that there would be some new information.

    Thanks for any help

    Update:

    'Recovery (DBrand new Windows 10 Laptop has no memory? :)' only has 1.25GB out of 10 GB free. Is this why I'm getting the message? Why is it full and what is it? Can I wipe it? Is it important?

    brand new lap top battery

    I ran the troubleshoot power option and it said “Display brightness setting is too high”

    but it’s a brand new laptop, i should think I could expect the most from it.

    I haven’t tried the next steps uou have suggested yet.
