Windows 10: windows audio device manager graph isolation using 28 GB Ram

so... windows audio device manager graph isolation is using 20% of my CPU and 28 GB of my Ram and I don't know why. It occasionally makes a windows error notification sound non-stop, so like a random noise every 10-60 seconds


I started downloading python 3.8.2 right around when this happened but it was off of the official website--> https://www.python.org/downloads/


Do I have a virus??

I was going to take more snipps, with the snipping but ever time i click new both screens go black


I have not tried a restart yet and I will but, its just so weird, and every time I end the task it starts back up again and slowly goes from 2Gb Ram to 28GB Ram in a matter of minuets

Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation

The last month or so, my Windows Audion Device Graph Isolation consistently takes up between 20%-70% of my RAM at any given time, even when I'm not playing audio. I know that this shouldn't even be the case when I'm playing audio. The other methods listed
in other community posts that I have read have not worked for mine and I am looking to get this fixed as soon as possible. What can I do to fix this problem?
