High RAM usage after multiple system wakeups, stays at 65%

[wolfrose]

Hello,

I've been having this issue for quite a while.

When I use my PC with multitasking and playing games. Then, I close everything, the RAM usage stays at 65% and I can't get it to the original state which is; like, 18%.

That's of course cause more RAM usage when I want to open apps the next time.

System restart solves everything.

My system is windows 8.1 pro.

I have a new laptop with windows 10 and I don't have this issue.

During the game




Launching the game




Running multiple tasks




After closing most powerful apps, the RAM and HDD go high.



Even my HDD gets high usage and very busy in similar situations.​

I don't know, maybe after last windows update, it's better now.

The RAM actually goes down after closing the apps.

The screenshots I uploaded are before the update. I thought I would save time, because I didn't delete them. Then when you asked for a specific screenshot. I started to close the apps to and then I saw that the RAM got to 22% which is very good.

Awesome

Thank you very much for support.


I have another question:
How to delete windows.old?

Disk cleanup doesn't work, because clearing previous windows files option doesn't exist.

I saw different topics about changing system inherit permission.

What's the best to do?
