My computer is almost a year old (yay) but recently the ram usage has spiked to 90% being used at idle and after reboot. Any help would be appreciated on getting it back down.

How much ram is installed? And what OS are you running? Do you have a ton of startup apps? CTRL+SHIFT+ESC goto Start Up on Widnows 10

16gb and currently around 15 or more is in use. OS: Windows 10 Home I have some startup apps it looks like around 17 but I have had these the entire time and only recently (I think) has the ram usage been this high.

What programs show as using a lot of ram in processes and sort by most ram usage? Example: 6ade000b77940e4c472986a28b540654.png

Chrome shouldn’t take up so much space and shouldn’t be a problem but you should show an image of your background tasks by clicking on that little triangle next to your date and time.
