I have just upgraded from windows 7 home premium 64-bit to windows 10 64-bit, and I have noticed that more RAM is in use than in windows 7. In windows 7, when I start the PC up, task manager tells me that 1.2GB of the 8GB I have installed is being used. On windows 10 however, this is increased significantly to 2.6GB out of the 8. If I leave my PC on for a couple of hours without opening any programs, the RAM usage slowly goes up until a point where I cannot open any applications and windows closes programs to save memory. When I restart the PC, the memory usage goes back to 2.6GB. I have disabled most of my startup programs, and tried to determine which program is using up most of the memory. Some of the programs using the highest amount of memory are things like skype and raptr. I expected this because it was the same on windows 7, but there are also other programs such as "search" and "system" that are using a significant amount of memory. All my drivers are up to date.
