Windows 10: RAM at 50%-60% of 16gb when idle

It has been like this for a week.

I ran a malwarebytes scan it showed no threats

Windows Using Upwards of 60% RAM when Idle

Hey community,

I've noticed when my system is idle (nothing actively open), it's using 50% to 60% RAM. I've searched around a bunch and tried some suggestions, but none have fixed the issue. I've booted into safe mode in an attempt to find the source of the issue but wasn't
able to as the system idled at only 15%.

My computer has 16 GB of RAM, but I can really only use half of it. Looking through the running processes in Task Manager and Resource Monitor, the usage values don't even add up to the amount used - something hidden is using a bunch of extra RAM.

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it.

System Specs:

Intel Core i7 6700k

16 GB RAM

Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 8 GB

Let me know if I need to provide more information.

High idle ram usage 8gb using 60%

"ram usage at idle is 60%"

- Not a fix for your unknown RAM use (Greg's suggestions should help with that), and this only adds up to a bit under 1GB use but...

A system is not at idle with around eight Chrome browser Windows and tabs open.

Discord, and two active searches. Not to mention a system hogging 'Anti-malware' program.

Desktop Window Manager is using more than usual as well.

- It looks like you have a bit of DELL bloatware running too.

- What is the RAM use straight after re-booting Windows ?
