Windows 10: High memory/Ram Usage from news and interests/feeds

My laptop was perfectly working fine not until occasionally, news and interests start to take up very large amounts of ram and disk usage.I believe that this all started when I was using photoshop and word at the same time and my laptop froze, however instead of stopping or forcibly shutting it down, I waited until it works however it was still lagging and abnormally slow after exiting the programs but not until I shut it down. after that, everything seemed to be fine however there would be sudden lag spikes or my laptop becoming slow, and when we went to the taskbar, News and interests is sud

System and compressed memory high disk usage during file copy

Thank you Amarjeet_Paul.

I spent many more hours than I had hoped this past week reading and trying others' suggestions from this community on how to reduce high RAM usage due to ntoskrnl.exe. The "System and compressed memory" process remained the top consumer of RAM, using 500-900MB,
among all other processes running. I deemed it to be the likely culprit in making my computer use frustratingly sluggish. After completing your
third step, steps 1. & 2. provided no improvement in my case, the "System and compressed memory" process RAM usage has plummeted from the top of the Task Manager Process list to the bottom, running at a remarkable 0.1MB! That's a whole lot less than
1% of the targeted process' gluttony. You're hired! Ps. I'll be keeping an eye on the process' use as I get back to normal operations, and be back if it floats to high in the list. Or if the registry fix you suggested has compromised use in any way. Please
explain in simple terms what the insertion of your registry modification is doing.

Thanks again.
