    I have pictures of my process monitor filtered by memory, resource monitor on memory, and my ram usage from the task manager.

    I built the PC myself 5 or 6 years ago and never had a problem with it until now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    High ram usage on Windows 10 upto 90%

    Recently My PC has been experiencing a very high amount of Ram usage (up to 90%). It always be 85%-90% use of ram when the pc is kept idle and no other application is running. I have a 4GB Ram and only about 300 MB
    Ram is left. As when I turn on my pc it takes about 6 to 8 minutes to startup. And when I run any application the pc hangs and I cannot do anything. Please help me out from this situation.

    Unknown Constant RAM Usage

    Hi,

    To explore more on RAM usage by processes and see in-depth I advise you to open the Resource monitor, please follow the below steps.

    Step 1 :

    Open Task Manager

    Step 2:

    Click on Performance

    Step 3:

    At the bottom click on Open Resource Monitor

    Step 4:

    Under Resource Monitor windows click on Memory

    Step 5:

    Click on Working Set to list the top process utilizing the more RAM and then evaluate RAM usage.

    Regards
