I've faced problems with my RAM from the start. It gradually slowed down, so I upgraded to new RAM sticks. Now I have two 8GB 16GB modules, but usage keeps rising and often hits 99-100%. Restarting seems to reset it most of the time. How can I prevent this?

Run a virus scan or reinstall the software.

unless you're running many Chrome windows it might be wise to perform a check

It doesn't show up in the task manager?

Here are some reliable free antivirus options you can try:
- Avast Free
- AVG AntiVirus Free
- Bitdefender Antivirus Free
- Kaspersky Security Cloud (free trial)
- Windows Defender (built-in)

Choose based on your needs and system requirements.

I’ll locate it using a suitable program.

ram usage is around 89% and you're running just two chrome windows.

Launch your task manager, arrange by memory consumption, and the app consuming the most resources will appear at the very top (unless it's particularly sneaky).
