Modern PCs require more and more RAM to work with better performance. Sometimes for good work enough and 2 GB of RAM, and sometimes lacks 4, if the computer is poorly configured or there is no access to use the entire amount of memory. There are some simple ways to increase free RAM and no longer spend your nerves and time in anticipation of normal programs.
1
Managing spontaneous launch programs. Start the release of RAM with more control over your programs. Moreover, with those that themselves are launched. Run msconfig.exe, open the Autroach tab and see which programs are run when the computer is turned on. If you do not need something, remove these programs or change the settings so that they do not turn on when Windows startup. A lot of space can occupy various additions for browsers and even Microsoft Office.
2
Disable unnecessary services. To speed up Windows, many are recommended to disable some of its services. In most cases, this does not give big results. Exception is Windows Defender. It takes about 20 MB of RAM or even more if you leave it in the background. If you have an additional antivirus, you can disable Defender with a calm conscience. To do this, in the search string in the "Start" type the word "Defender" and open the program. In the Defender menu, select "Programs" - "Parameters" - "Administrator", remove the bird in the "Use this program" item. Thus, you can free up enough memory.

Reduce equipment requirements. If your computer has a 4 GB RAM, you will most likely use only 3-3.5 GB of them. The rest of the BIOS space uses for a network card, video adapter and the other. To see how much memory is allocated for hardware devices, run the device manager, for this press the "Start" button and enter the "Devmgmt.msc" command. In the "View" tab, select "Type Resources" and Expand the Memory tab, you can see how memory is allocated. Most likely, the most part occupies a video card. Examine what the BIOS is most involved. If you do not use all the properties of the video card, then some of them can be disabled, for example: integrated sound, built-in graphics, unused network adapters and so on. All this will help somewhat unload the RAM.

Minimize applications. There are such users who run a lot of games and programs, and after do not turn off them, but simply turn the windows and start the next one. And then stay in the sincere surprise from the poor and slow work of the computer. Turn off those programs that no longer use. Rolled program windows continue to operate and occupy RAM. You can achieve the release of memory for the currently necessary applications at the moment.
5
Watch your PC. Use programs that can follow not only for rapid memory, but also behind the hard disk space. For example, install the CCleaner program, it has many features, including correcting errors in the registry operation, autorun management, disc cleaning and others.
All these steps will allow you more efficiently and rational use of the available RAM.
