    incorrect task manager RAM reporting

    Hi all,

    I don't know if you have been seeing this as well, but there seems to be either a bug or reporting error where Task Manager reports that a process is using a stupid amount of RAM (in my case, Chrome.exe reports using 2 or more gigs of RAM). When I go to end
    the process, it says that the operation couldn't be done because the process isn't valid. After, when I try to organize Task Manager by RAM usage, task manager hangs. Has this happened to anyone else?

    Task manager not showing complete memory usage?


    Hi, I have 4GB of DDR3 ram on my laptop. When I go into the task manager to check how much ram is being used, it says only 795MB and yet it also says that 94% is being used.

    This is always the case, of course with varying numbers. The memory usage shown does not coordinate with the percentage, but the computer performance certainly correlates with the percentage.

    When I check in cpu-z, it does confirm that the 4GB are all installed. What is going on here?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Update #2:
    Ah, I missed the performance tab which does indeed show all of the correct total amount of ram being used. Now how do I find all of the individual processes and services using those resources?

    Task Manager Performance tab shows drive C: usage at 89% always.

    I have a Windows 10 Pro system with all updates installed. The Task Manager Performance tab shows C: usage at 89% all of the time with only slight variations in the percentage. The Processes tab shows disk usage at about 40%. The only process using the disk
    is System.

    Disk defragmentation is disabled. File indexing is disabled. There are only five apps listed on the Startup tab including OneDrive and Windows Security Notifications. I have disabled the other three with no change in C: usage.

    I have other PCs running the same version of Windows that do not have this problem. The only thing that is unique about the system with the problem is that C: is a software RAID 1 array consisting of two identical 4TB drives configured as RAID 1 in Disk
    Manager. Is it normal for Task Manager to show continuous disk access for a Windows RAID 1 array? Any other suggestions? Thanks.
