  1. Issue with laptop memory


    So, my laptop is having severe issues with memory. It is running an earlier version of Windows 10, just in case you need to know that. I can't update it because of space issues. I can't clear the cache either. Every time I do the necessary steps to clear the cache, it makes me lose space. I am trying to reset it, but in order to reset it, it requires a certain amount of space and I can't delete enough stuff to achieve that. And troubleshooting doesn't fix anything.


    Basically:

    Deleting useless files = Loses space

    Clearing cache = Doesn't work but loses space

    Emptying recycle bin = Loses space

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you receive low memory error even though it has 8 gb of RAM. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    This issue may arise due to:

    Corruptions in Windows components, Ram not accessing its full capacity, multiple files opened on the computer etc.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to run

    unused files and shortcuts and performs maintenance tasks.

      • Press Windows key and type Troubleshooting.
      • Select Troubleshooting and hit Enter.
      • Click on View all in the left pane of the window.
      • Select System Maintenance.
    Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.

    If the issue still persists, I suggest you to check if the computer is using its full memory.

    • Press Windows key + R and type msconfig.
    • Go to Advance options and check if you have choosen use Maximum memory.
    • If not, I suggest you to place a check mark, restart the computer and check if that helps.
