Yhh, Very good man! :)
Wow it is extremely rare for me to comment on UA-cam but I would have felt very ungrateful not to relay that your video completely solved my issue. Thanks so much you saved me some money on buying more RAM and I really appreciate it. Keep up the amazing and helpful work!
I'm always skeptical of this sort of thing but it dropped me from 80% constantly to 21%. Solid.
How??
Yeah how lol

Thank you so much people should pay more attention to channels like this because you dont always have to buy new stuf to replace the old
Very true. I was about 24 hours away from buying more ram until I discovered this video
It always amazes me as to where people actually get this kind of knowledge
condensed knowledge from forums and other videos
regedit been around since windows 95 if not mistaken, people just became expert at editing the OS settings and newer versions still share same tree for most things, after all windows 10/11 is just an updated version of the core windows program....
Hoping someday Linux or any other OS can take on Windows, because we all know is just pure crap and slows down your system with crap stuck on your memory. Phones OS are the same, they self destroy with memory leaks and enforce people to buy a new one when they just can't handle the newer versions (software forcing people to upgrade the hardware as a plan of obsolesce )
I can't afford apple products and don't even recommend them, but wonder how long can they endure without the need to fix/reinstall the OS to improve/solve performance issues.

My Memory usage did go down, but now my PC got all sort of weird problems and some of my games can't be played like black ops 3, now it blackscreens my computer and gives me an error message followed by a windows bluescreen with a sad face ":(" and reboots my computer.
Tried reverting all the things he did, memory usage gone up like before but now my PC is just overall worse than before.
Can someone please help? ;(
Sorry man you might have to factory reset or go to a backup idk how to do those but u can search for that
this is a great video but for the future could you explain what the changes do when you showcase them? It makes troubleshooting near impossible when you don't know what you're doing to you're computer with these changes.
I will keep it in mind. Thank you.
@@softbayin hi i have 8.00 GB (5.94 GB usable)
is less usable ram make my pc sloswer or faster
please could you let me know asap i would really appreciate it thanks
@@nigelphillips7454 Depends on what you are running. If you are running high-memory intensive programs, then your pc will run slower because your pc has to constantly swap data in and out of RAM. If you are running low-memory intensive programs, your pc should run as normal.
Late to the party but yeah 😭 I put too much blind trust and applied all the changes in one go before restarting.
Now all my games crash constantly and I have no idea which step caused it 🥲
This problem bother me for few months until I found your video. It is super helpful and solve the problem instantly! Thank you for making this video!
dude like thanks, i went from 95% to 44% memory and from 80% cpu to 15% cpu! keep up the good work
I'd highly not suggest messing with the registery, I tried it and had several problems with my computer. It was not severely damaged but some of my drivers were not working.
Yeah... having some hard issues with games rn, tried reverting what i did in the registery but the problems persist, did you fix it? How 🤕
@@edwinccosta dunno ust fixed it
OMG. I am so thankful to you man. The 1st option (in regedit) worked for me. I had about 80% memory usage and now I have 25-35%. Thank you so much. U saved me. Like and sub.
This is very helpful! Memory usage went down from 99% to 60%. Thank you!
Well, 60% is not best but its much better than 99% 😂
that's still high tho
YOU ARE AMAZING! so many other tutorials just were not working but you covered so many fixes and fast!
THANK YOU THIS ACTUALLY WORKED, I tried everything up to 7 minutes into the video and now fixed :)
Did all the things in this video except defragmentation (as it's taking a while, and I plan on continuing on it when I have time.)I can definitely confirm it does work! Memory usage dropped by 20% to even 30%! Even a game that I couldn't run before due to not enough memory apparently runs perfectly fine and it's in game usage memory dropped from ridiculous 99% to a healthy 70-80%. Thank you so very much. This is the best guide on UA-cam. Subscribed.
im sort of in the same boat as you , but still Opera internet browser is using 99% DISK and 63gb of my 64gb total
only thing that solves it is if i do hard reboot by turning off the computer completely - waiting 5 minutes and then starting it up again
but it only lasts for like maybe 40-50 minutes and then all of my 64gb ram gets used up again
i cant stand this
@@TL.... Defragmentation could definitely help you with that.
@modern moonlight which step you do
@@SparshGamer380 Like i said I did them all except for defragmentation.

thanks man my memory went from 40+ percent to 35 percent the numbers might seem small but the difference are really huge for me!
Thank you!! Went from 99% to 40+% :)
Not even joking, I went from 98% memory usage to 11% from doing the Registry Editor one, cheers mate thanks for the help.
cuantos gb de memoria tienes en total?
brooooo thanks thanks a lot second method works windows was using 53 percent ram usage and i was only have 3.7gb ram to use now it is showing 22 percent ram now i have 6gb ram useageble
Cap
When i start my PC it uses 7,5gb of RAM.
did the sysmain registry thingy and defragmentation, restarted and went from 70% to 30% real fast. Defo worked, thanks random youtube guy!
A massive change from 59% to 22% !!!!! I cant THANKS YOU ENOUGH!!!!
Dammmm
For realll!!!
I hope my also works.

dude this is cursed
well explained my friend, musically silent, thank fack...,just old fashioned speaking, tasks explained with chronologic steps. no life story or ifs & buts.. recommend this guy
I just wanted to say you helped me greatly and deserve more subs my guy. I went from about 20 GB Memory to 12GB after the command prompt thing and defragging. I appreciate you and your content.
nice, immediatly noticed the lou theme in the backround, fine choice.
same I recognized it too
If none of those solutions work, you should lower the maximum dynamic memory in Microsoft Hyper-V or completely disable this feature in "Windows Features". This is specially for Windows 10/11 Pro and higher users.
what does it do
I deleted my anti virus and restarted and it's back to normal thank you!
Me hearing the guy say if it didn't work be like: oh there is another way? Ok then imma do it to so i have better memory
Me doing all the changes and finishing his entire video first before restarting my PC: ultimate power
It got stuck on restart and bios came up. With some battery and charging related msg. Feels like next time i won't be just following instructions blindly. But it worked, thanks a lot. God bless you with millions of subscribers.
Went from 97% to 55% thanks 😊
I did everything in the video up to 6:45 and restarted my computer and nothing worked anymore 😑 I figured out that in the process of doing all this, all my drivers got deleted for pretty much everything. I couldn't even open brave browser, I had to download and pay $25 USD for drivereasy to re download and install every driver that the computer normally comes with when you buy it. there is a free option but it purposefully slows down your dowloads by like 99% of your usual download speeds so it was gonna take a couple of days of doing each driver one by one. sorry for the rant but be careful guys.
damn thats harsh! Is the problem gone tho?
Pov u searched for this on phone
thank you so much my pc is a complete potato plus it has high memory and GPU this turned it from 98 to 65 thank you soo much I can finally continue gaming without it crashing due to memory overload
Does exactly what is suggested in the video step by step but instead of lowering down the RAM management my RAM management got cranked up to 95% until the point that my pc got black screen & got shutdown or restarted
Same I don't know what's wrong with my system 😔
SAME HERE
I don't recommend changing clearpagefileatshutdown from 0 to 1 because after you do that you pc is gonna take alot time to restart of even shutdown.

Please don’t follow whatever this guy is saying. As soon as he started editing the registry I knew this video was sketchy. Never and I mean NEVER edit the registry or any other deep setting without knowing 100% what you are doing. The only true way to reduce ram usage is closing background apps and disabling startup apps that you know (don’t disable startup apps that seem important etc are windows related.)
I reverted the registry edits, but all the issues i got by following this dude tutorial still persist, what do i do? 🤒🤒
just a tip, do not USE Avast as a antivirus because it will use much more ram
o h no wonder why ive been getting slow performents

hi, i tried everything but i always end with the same problem, my RAM reaches 100% and everything on my pc starts crashing and i have to restart the whole pc, first appears a message saying that segurazo service crashed, and then my motherboard decides to disconnect my gpu, also the drivers crash, what could be the problem? the technician i contracted told me that this problem is normal for everyone, im not sure what to do and i cant find a solution, please help.
Please uninstall segurzo and then install a new and better antivirus software (definitely seems like a virus because your antivirus crashes the first) and then run scans. If that does not work, create a backup and then reset your pc (completely). That is my suggestion. Hope it helps!
if u r using HDD... replace with SSD problem will be solved 100%
dude dont do anything the best and easiest way is just pop an ssd and add more ram into ur pc
go to google and search ur processor model and check how much maximum ram u can increase
then install ssd and turn on ur pc it will be really faster i had ur same problem but when i did this my laptop is running really fast !! this is the only way or take a hard disk and backup ur files and format ur pc (including windows ) and download windows back again with the help of ur technician .
