Windows 10: [Windows 10] Available Physical Memory very less than total installed

I have a Dell E5450 running x64-bit Windows 10 Pro. I have a installed physical memory of 8 GB out of which total physical memory is showing 7.89 GB and available physical memory of 4.15 GB. I don't understand why there is such a huge gap in between these. I checked the answers to similar questions and as per them: I did uncheck the maximum memory option in msconfig. I also ran the Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool but it did not show any errors. Can anyone help me with this? Let me know if you need anymore information.

The avilable physical memory is much lower than my total physical memory ....

• 
  The Physical Available Memory I have is much lower than the Total Physical Memory
  
• 
  I have a 8 GB PC running but when I open the task manger for example android studio is taking about 1.855 GB and it's written above that this is 80% of the memory ..... I thinked that another program is consuming in the background so I switched the view
  method in the memory so every program is written in front of it the memory usage percentage and I was shocked when I saw that android studio is consuming about 70% !!!! so the computer is just using 2.83 GB out 8 GB of my memory !!!!
  
• 
  I searched a little bit online till I found that i can see something called the physical available memory ... and the total physical memory
  
• 
  the total physical memory was 8 as expected and available physical memory was about 2.59 GB !!!
  
• 
  A lot of articles online said that a part of your memory is being consumed by hardware parts like the graphics card ..... but not as much as mine
  
• 
  I tried a lot of solutions but non of them worked in my case .... But I noticed Something a little bit weird .... every time I restart the device the physical available memory changes .... sometimes 6 sometimes 4 ... some times 1.5 !!!!!
  
• 
  I tried also to reinstall my windows an installed a fresh new windows 10 education ..
  
• 
  has any one face this problem before ?! or any solutions ??

Installed physical RAM vs Total physical RAM

Hello everyone,

I tried to install 16 GB of RAM to my computer, instead of the initial 8 I had. But when I add the new RAM (in total 4x4 GB of RAM, and they are the same kind). the installed RAM increases to 16 but the total physical RAM hence the total usable RAM remains
8 GB.

I want to point out, I am NOT talking about available physical memory, but TOTAL, compared to installed.





(Sorry the system is not English, but this is a screenshot from System properties so the titles follow each other the same way.)

I have a 64-bit Win 10, so that is not the issue.

BIOS sees all four modules, and there is no indication that the GPU uses the extra memory.

Tried to change the paging file size, but didn't help.

I am at a loss. Especially because only appears over 8 GB of memory, no matter which module goes into which socket.

Thanks in advance, hope someone can help.

Cheers,

Matt
