Windows 10: windows 10 high mem usage ( poolman screenshot inc )

​hello good people , My name is

So iv upgraded from my good ol 8.1 to 10 a while ago , while its a pleasing os , its high memory usage issues annoy me allot . Yes i have researched before coming here , i reinstalled my all mobo drivers inc lan , audio etc etc , re did the nvidia drivers , so i have done the drivers part , now i read about poolmon , i fired up a game and then poolmon , pressed P and then D on pool mon to get to the specified area , here is the result ,

note that the top 3 memory consumers go higher than that but just to give a hint these are the main culprits , now the thing is i have no idea what they are or how to trace them , your help would be appreciated people

note :system.exe aka ntoskrnl.exe takes up allot of ram bottle necking any app that im running

i have also disabled the location , system tips etc as suggested by various sites . i did try disabling super fetch but it gave rather unpleasant results .

Full scans and others taking up a lot of disk usage

Hello Nicholas,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Let me answer you query regarding High Disk usage in Windows 10.

You may face high disk usage if the computer is infected with virus or using malicious third party applications.

1. You mentioned that you are facing high disk usage while performing the disk defragmentation, Are you using the inbuilt defragmentation utility or third party software?

2. Did you perform the scan using windows defender and check if the disk usage is high?

You may please check the processes that are causing high disk usage in task manager.

I suggest you to provide the screen shot of the processes tab of the task manager, and provide us more information.

and here is a screen shot of both the paged and the non paged ones with just 5 mins of gameplay .

EDIT: so i found out that tags "smNp" and "smBt" are actually for the readyboost driver , odd since i am not using that feature

 

are these forums active ?

 

I would say people avoid answering you questions, because you seem pretty knowledgeable.
For a normal user I would recommend CleanMem to deal with memory leaks, but not for you.

Many people have problems after they have upgraded instead of a clean install, so maybe that is it.
If you can not do a clean install, try to do a standard maintenance, like "sfc /scannow"& "chkdsk /r".

I could only recommend you my little experiment I put together to fix some things using DISM Fix.bat.

 

I had this issue with buggy μTorrent. It steals Windows global memory.

 

Thankyou tairiku and am13 for replying , ill look into both of your suggestions and report back!
