Hi,

I've had this problem since installing W10. My RAM's usage keeps increasing overtime and after a few days it gets to over 90%. It effects my computers performance, even typing something is incredibly slow, which means it isn't just a visual issue. I've searched my computer for malware and bitcoin miners and haven't found anything. The only solution that works (although temporarily) is restarting my computer. I've noticed that other people report similar issues over the internet but I haven't found any meaningful solution yet.

Do you have any advice for me?

Thanks in advance,
David

Can you use Resource Monitor (memory tab sort by Commit and or Working Set column) to determine what is using the memory when this happens.
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools\Resource Monitor
Sounds a bit like a third party program with a memory leak.
You may want to try a Clean Boot and see if the problem persists.
