    Hello Microsoft Community,I have a desktop PC running an AMD Ryzen 3800X with 32 GB of RAM with a 3600Mhz Clock.Previously, When running Windows 10, Standard CPU and RAM usage was around 20% & 35%.After upgrading to windows 11, it went up to around 35% and 45%. However, after the latest windows update a couple of days ago, CPU usage went down to around 15% but the RAM usage spiked way higher to around 70% on idle. Has someone else experienced this as well??I suspected malware or some sort of Virus but windows defender scan says my PC is clean.Can someone help me sort this issue out????? Is

    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 ?

    RAM usage 50±% on idle.

    without Firefox its on 43% usage, which still looks alot for me considering it to be on idle.

    BitDefender was updating.

    I actually have 8gb of ram, not 4gb.
