Windows 10: Windows 10 pro low memory error crash

Ever since up grading to Windows 10 pro 64 bit I get a low memory error. Once I click ok my system crashes. Memory usage % has never exceded 50% as far as I can tell. After reboot % is only about 22%. Originally I only had 4gb ram with virtual memory set to auto at 4gb. I added 4gb additional ram which in turn upped my virtual memory to 8gb. I have noticed it only happens when I use IE11 with at most 4 pages open; i.e. facebook, news pages or mail. Windows 10 only requires 4gb ram, so with my upgrade of 4gb brings my total to 8gb. If you figure in virtual memory of 8gb I can see no reason for memory to "run low". Any ideas?

Windows 10 Low on Memory Warning since Creators update

Hi Erika

I'm afraid that the standard pre-formatted answer you have offered to that question does not explain the reasons for the continuous "Low On Memory" error that people all over the world seem to be receiving since Windows 10
Creators updated itself.

In my own instance, programs such as Chrome, Microsoft Word or PaintShop Pro have all been crashing on me and our family and returning the low on memory error since the Windows 10 Creators
update and I never had a problem before it.

My 13 year old son wrote down the times of
occurrence last evening and had 6 crashes within a 30 minute period!

My computer has 2.5 GB free Ram, plenty of hard drive space and the virtual memory in paging file is set at 1024MB.

If you can, could you please tell us what it really is that Windows 10 Creators does, that uses up so much memory and leads to the occurrence of the Low On Memory error?

regards

Zack

 

LOW MEMORY

I was rendering a video in premiere pro and it advised me that I have low memory, how do I make space? low memory which is ram not hard drive space.
