    Windows keeps files open in memory after I have closed them


    Windows continues to mandate how I may work. Before shutting down, I save and close any files or worksheets I have been using. The program closes. I then perform shut down and it shows nothing open. The next time I boot up my computer, windows automatically opens the programs and files for me. This seems to contribute memory stress. Windows is holding these open in memory. If I NEED them, I know how to open them again. I would rather open what I need and not have to close what I don't need before I can do anything the next day.

    How can I save memory timings in Ati tool after I have edited them?

    How can I save memory timings in Ati tool after I have edited them?
    If I close Ati tool and open it again without restarting the computer it will still have the memory timings which I saved, but when I restart the computer and open ati tool again, it will have the default memory timings.

    Windows Explorer keeps closing after Windows 10 upgrade

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.

    Try with the methods below and check.

    Method 1:I suggest you to run
    System File Checker, which will check your system for missing, corrupt or damaged files and attempt to fix them.

    Please refer the article on “How to run System File Checker” and check if that helps.

    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833/en-gb

    Method 2:

    If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:


    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.

    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
    Hope this helps. If you face any issues with Windows, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
