Memory Leak On Windows 10, help!

[YoMrMan]

For the past month or so after continuous use my computer's RAM started to skyrocket, and would only go back down after a reboot. Later I googled "Windows 10 problem with high ram usage after periods of time" and came to this post http://superuser.com/questions/949244/windows-10-high-memory-usage-unknown-reason

 

This seems pretty much what problem I have since I have the killer network app and large amount of unpaged pool, I just can't seem to understand the first post enough, and the second answer isnt in depth enough for me to know what to do. Thank you in advance if you help me and my potato understanding of all this.

Open task manager, click more details and sort the programs by Ram usage.

The is no program that is showing up as the cause. It currently shows Chrome as the highest at 4% usage out of 40% total usage.

Are you counting all the instances of google chrome listed?

Does this help? Im guessing the unpaged pool is the memory leak stuff

I see you have programs already opened

close one and look at the memory usage if it drops - usually it's instant, but it's a more complex memory leak, it could take up couple of minutes

repeat by closing another program, and so on
