    Installed Memory vs Usable Memory


    I am trying to work out why my installed memory and available memory are so far off in difference, 2.7 gig difference.


    Windows 10 Home Version


    The virtual memory shows the same difference, 2.23 gb


    Page file system is 1.25 gb


    Thank you


    C

    :)

    Windows 10 incorrect memory

    Hi Kulvir,

    Your system may display a usable memory (RAM) which is less than the installed memory. This is because the usable memory is a calculated amount of the total physical memory minus the
    Hardware Reserved Memory which is reserved for use by the BIOS and some drivers for other peripherals.

    To view the installed memory and the usable memory in Windows 10, follow these steps:

    • Open File Explorer, right-click This PC, then choose
      Properties.
    • View the Installed memory (RAM) value under System.

    For example, if it displays 16.0 GB (15.9 GB usable), this means that you have
    15.9 GB of usable memory out of 16.0 GB of installed memory.

    Feel free to post back if you have further concerns.
