I’m very inept but I’ll do my best. It runs Windows 11 and has an SSD drive. The drive has 300GB of free space. I’ve used the machine for 5 days. Up until yesterday all was well. Playing Minecraft and watching YouTube at the same time, whilst having discord up in the background. Using the tasks manager I could see it used around 70% memory.
Cut till yesterday. I had the same three apps running. It was using around 80%. No biggie.
Cut till today. I had Minecraft running and opened chrome. And it lagged so bad. Opened up the tasks manager and saw memory was on 99%. I tried restarting the machine. A similar problems had happened before and restarting made the % go back down. Not this time.
I have no app other than the task manager running. The memory % never goes below 97%.
I’ve tried both restarting the computer. And shutting it down for 30 min, waiting, then starting it again. It’s still 97%. It lags so bad whenever I try to do anything.
I’ve also run a virus scan but nothing shows up.
I don’t know what to do. Help.
You need to check which program uses all the memory. And than you know where you have to look.
