Windows Desktop Manager is using 1GB ram when chrome is open and about half when nothing is open. I Have tried turning off Screensaver, restaring, updating my graphics drivers, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated User's image

    Please show a screenshot of msinfo32 tool.

    Reinstall graphic drivers from PC manufacturer's site using DDU tool.

    Repair system files by

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    command  from Windows Terminal (admin) environment.

    Tell the result.
