Windows 10: Lots of resources being used

I have up to 45% of my CPU and 70-85% of my RAM in use (I have 8 GB) just by doing low end tasks. Looking in task manager, I know for a fact that ~6GB of RAM is not being used by Discord and Chrome. Windows should barely use any of that.

I've been suspicious of bloatware after a trojan Java virus (fake Minecraft mod) was on my device, but it was cleaned off with 3 different antivirus programs returning negatives (after 101 deep scans).

To give you an idea of these low end tasks, here's what I do...

• Literally one chrome tab (closing it doesn't change anything)
• Discord
• Reddit
• Low-mid end gaming (but high usage is to be expected with that)

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
